Today brought
Daniel Paille 1/1 in about 4 months c/o Sabres. Decent sig but he returned card minus plastic holder causing it to get bent/creased.
Sandis Ozolinsh 4/4 in about 4.5 months from 701 Golf Club Dr, Castle Rock CO. Nice sigs and put correct number on them.
Paul Masnick 1/1 in about 2 weeks from 303 155 Hillcrest Ave, Cooksville ON. Signed in pen but came out nice.

I don't use plastic holders (I'm told players don't like that), but I do use a makeshift protector (basically a thick cardboard sleeve) that provides easy removal.
I always ask that they send back the card in that... on a few occasions players didn't, most recently Jim Corsi, but I've been pretty lucky... no damage on any cards.
Dave Dryden actually responded to my homemade protectors, and basically the whole package I put together... his note: "You are very well organized Marc, Great Job!"
thought that was kinda cool.

Got lucky today.
Stan Mikita. Got back 5 signed cards despite sending 6. Payed $50 for the five. He added to my letter that autos are $30 per plus S&H. I consider myself lucky to have got the five. The return addy on the envelope was 7223 S RT83 PMB#238, WIllowbrook, IL 60527.
Also received Brad Park c/o Bruins alumni. 2/2 and personalized both items.

Nice success Blooo..... saw on another board that Makita signed McFarlane base for $20. $30.00 to sign a card??
Does he read the newspaper? In the midst of financial chaos.... maybe the royalties from Waynes World stopped.

Hanu Toivenen c/o Ilves Tampere HC 2/2. Good sig, used a thin black sharpie so it came up nice. Quick return from Finland.

Mike Modano. Got back 3/3 signed by his mother. Waited 6 months for mom's auto. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised given others' results.

Two in person successes this weekend.
Andy Bathgate. Very personable and had no problem taking the time to talk. Great sig.
Eddie Shack. Signed two things but wasn't interested in being personable. If you weren't buying the stuff he had for sale, he didn't seem interested in giving you the time of day. Must say this surprised me.

How can you tell if its an original or if it's signed by his mother? My friend got two back about 3 years ago and I'm wondering if his are original or not?
Is there somewhere where I can see pictures of an original and his mothers to compare the two?

I compared the sig with what was on Frozen Pond. They had a signing with him not long ago. I also check out e-bay for cards that are signed from Upper Deck etc. With respect to Modano, they are distinct differences in the Ms and the space between the d and a. Based on what I have read here, I would attrubute the difference to mom.

My son and I met Shackie at a signing a few years back. He let me video tape him telling stories, signed my son's shirt and let him wear his Stanley Cup ring for a photo.

Sometimes certain guys wait and do them all at once. Maybe he didn't want to do them thru the Magog hockey season and now that the team is likely finished he's getting around to the TTM requests. Yours should show up soon.

Maybe it is just that he has been "discovered" and that there are a lot more requests than he has seen in the past and he is still signing at the old rate or he has gone on ebay and seen what his autograph is worth. What is his autograph worth anyway?

Ilya Kovalchuk 1/3 from 5509 Long Island Dr NW, Atlanta in about a month. He signed one card and the plastic card holder that had two other cards in it. Must not have thought to pull them out. Next time I'll send without a card holder. I'm sure its just an oversight on his part. The card he signed looks good.

Yes, this was my 2nd success with him. The first time he signed his 8X10 Studio Portrait of him as a Bruin. The 2nd time he signed a 5X7 Beehive of him as a Bruin. Just dont send to many cards and be patient. The first one took around a year.

Here is the postal code for Pettinger V9B 6T3. I dont record them because once I have the addy, they can be found through postal code look ups such as Canada Post, 411.com or 411.ca etc.

Norm Ullman 2/2
Gaye Stewart 1/1 plus he added a great letter.
Dean Prentice 2/2
Ron Wicks 1/1 plus he responded to my questions and added that he has his memoirs coming out soon.
All addys can he found on this site.
All returns were 8-10 day and the sigs look excellent.
With respect to providing postal codes. I dont put them down for two reasons. First, after what happened to Kevin, I dont want to make it to easy for a certain person to just cut and paste. This way a little leg work will be required. Second, once you have the name and addy, all you have to do is go to 411 or postal code look ups to get it. Keeping them seems redundant to me.

Got lucky today.
Stan Mikita. Got back 5 signed cards despite sending 6. Payed $50 for the five. He added to my letter that autos are $30 per plus S&H. I consider myself lucky to have got the five. The return addy on the envelope was 7223 S RT83 PMB#238, WIllowbrook, IL 60527.
Also received Brad Park c/o Bruins alumni. 2/2 and personalized both items.
Hey Blooline - where did you send for Makita? I have a different addy in Willowbrook for him than the one here.
