Today, I got 2 successes in the mail. I got Jim Otto and Leroy Kelly. Jim Otto put a “00” inscription, and Leroy Kelly put a “HOF 1994” inscription. Jim Otto was the surprise one though, because I didn’t expect “00” Estates Drive to be a real address. But hey, I guess it is a real address!! I’m also very glad that Leroy Kelly sent back, because he’s the 3rd player I’ve sent a vintage card to. It’s cool how he put the full 1994 instead of just putting ‘94.

I got 2 successes in the mail today. The first one was Roger Staubach. Not only did he sign the card I sent him, but he personalized it too!! I had a feeling he would sign it, because the first sentence of the letter I wrote to him was thanking him for his service in Vietnam. The other success I got was Boyd Dowler. I asked him 2 questions in the letter and he answered both of them!! The questions were;
1. What was it like to play under Vince Lombardi?
and
2. Do you think ...

Today I received a second letter back from Lenny Moore. I sent him a index card and asked him a few questions about his career like “What was it like to play football with Johnny Unitas?” Or “What was it like being inducted into the Hall of Fame?”. I completely forgot I sent him a second letter, so it was a surprise when I checked my mailbox. He didn’t answer the questions but he sent me back a second card that he signed! What a nice surprise!

I got my 8th success today with Jim Zorn!! Very quick return seeing how I live 1,993mi from the address I sent it to. Excactly 2 weeks!! It’s too bad the top loader messed up the autograph a little bit, but I can’t control what happens to it. I also got a note back from Willie Davis saying that he isn’t signing at this time. Oh well. :/
