Just checking to see if anyone has had success recently with any of the following players:
Joe Thornton (c/o San Jose Sharks)
Jeremy Roenick (home address)
Bernie Parent (home address)
Rick Nash (c/o Columbus Blue Jackets)
Doug Gilmour (c/o Kingston Frontenacs OHL)
Sending McFarlane bases to the above players; received Don Cherry and Ted Lindsay autographed McFarlane bases. Also sending out the hood of a 1/24 scale die-cast car to Jimmie Johnson. (wrong sport - huge fan though).
Want to try Brett Hull, Chris Pronger, Ron Francis and any others success stories anyone wishes to pass along.

I got Nash back c/o Columbus earlier in the season after about two months. I also received Francis back c/o the Hurricanes this summer.

Bernie Parent (home address).
I wrote Bernie c/o his home address back in July. Bernie kept my card, but returned a post card inscribed to me (no HOF year added).

I hope they all come back signed, or at least come back. I have my brother going down to the states so he will pay for the postage coming back, so even if they don't want to sign, they can just put it back in the envelope and send her away.
Next project includes: John Tavares McFarlane going to London to get signed ans well as one for PK Subban in Belville.

I got Pronger quickly through Don Meehan (his agent) last season. And I got my Gilmour back after 18 months c/o Leafs just a couple months ago, so there is hope!

Well I am hoping since Gilmour is the coach of Kingston he might have a little extra time to sign (lol), and will wait as long as it takes for the others. My collection of signed McFarlanes is growing and growing.
Will be recieving package from Calgary with Jarome Iginla, Dion Phaneuf, Mikka Kiprusoff, Todd Bertuzzi, and Dustin Boyd Custom, signed McFarlanes bases.
What a score.....

I had success with Thornton - with the Bruins
I had sucess fairly recently with Parent at home.
Never received my cards back from Nash.
Good luck.

Good to hear that there are success stories. I send the bases out llike others do with cards and pucks. I love collecting them, it would be a shame if the base did not come back, but hey it's trial and error.

I have a strong feeling Nash never received your cards as he always signs one card for everyone.
