[flames34] Many Happy Returns

[flames34]

Whenever I send a custom card/pic, I always send an extra for the player. It's about 50/50 whether they keep it or not. When they do send the extra card back, it's almost always signed. But it's always more exciting when they keep it. I like to think they have posted on their fridge.

I think I'm going to try to do that from now. Just in case. :)

Mr. Foster sent a nice note and requested a copy of the customs I made, even sent an SASE. Very cool. Thank you, Mr. Foster- made my day. :)

Do you have pictures of your customs?

Hey Blargh, I posted these in another thread but there's a Norm Foster in here...

These ones are pretty generic, was kind of going for those OPC minis from the 80's:

These are in the style of old WHA cards with some wear:

And these are my 88-89 OPC attempts:

None of them are anything really exceptional but they print nice and look great signed. Always happy additions to my collection. I'm working on the 88-89 OPC again right now because I'm unhappy with it but it's difficult to find a high quality scan to work with. I think the appeal for any player that might want a copy of what I made is simply that they never had a card produced with that team.

One yesterday:

Ric Nattress - 5/4 - 172 Days

He included a signed 4x6- a great addition to my 89 Stanley Cup team collection. Thanks, Mr. Nattress. :)

Could you please post the address you used for Nattress? I saw on another site where he kept the persons cards and sent a signed Flames postcard instead. I'm glad to see that doesn't happen to everybody. Thanx.

Hey Bruins, I saw the same thing and wondered if I'd receive a similar reply. I was stoked to receive my cards back signed.
