Djauwerda's TTM Success Thread

Got another return in today: Gene Schroeder. Played for the Bears from 1951-57. Returned 3/4 customs (K1AO). Personalized all of them for me and my kids. Also included a nice note. 5 day turnaround.

Awesome stuff. Gotta love getting those notes back along with the auto. Those seriously make my week on the rare occasions I get one.

[djauwerda]

I agree Marshall... So much fun when they appreciate the time.

First return of the new year is a childhood favorite of mine. Doug Plank returned 3 of 4 customs (K1AO) in 12 days.

great cards I am a huge Bears fan so love seeing your customs come back

[djauwerda]

Thank you! I wasn't as active TTM last year... lots of reasons for it... family life got busy, lost everything I had created in a hard drive crash which really depressed me a lot... ruined a couple auto's trying to create some custom cards which irritated me a little more.... then bought a new computer and my Photoshop CS5 won't play nice with it so I'm afraid I'm going to have to bite the bullet and get a Adobe Cloud account... limping through for now.

I did have a nice year IP though.

Planning on being more active this year. I have a couple of designs I need to revamp a little, have a better idea of what to do to double side some customs so I'm going to try to try my hand at that again.

I like the Gaines Adams a lot. Really cool stuff!

[djauwerda]

The Adams was fun to create. Had some help doing it, but it turned out sharp.

Picked up another obscure Bear today. Joey LaRocque played one season for the Bears. He signed 4/4 customs and sent a nice note via his new company.

Nice pickup! I have a RC SP Authentic of his that I always wanted to get signed. Is the address at the bottom of the letter the address you used? Thanks.
