Tom Izzo - 8x10 Authentic Auto --Requested one for me and one for a friend, but said if he can only do one, make it for my friend... he only sent one and it was to my friend. I'll try to get one for myself in a few weeks.
Jim Calhoun - 8x10 Authentic Auto

5/10/10
Jay Leno - 8x10 Authentic Auto

5/17/10
Ben Bernanke - 8x10 Authentic (?) Auto. -- I'm not completely sure on authenticity, but it looks good (varied marker pressure, no "dots" from auto-pen, etc). Plus, inscription with my full name, "best wishes" & the date after his signature... so, I'm guessing it's authentic.
Rubin "Hurricane" Carter - Received (2) Authentic Auto'd photos. One a bad quality boxing photo w/a huge watermark on it and one of him in his later years (non-boxing)... but, I can't complain because I was told that he would sign stuff that I send him w/return postage, so these were two bonus autos because the postmark was 5/11/10 and I sent him the photos that I want him to sign on 5/10/10. So, I'm still waiting to receive the photos that I sent him.
***Will post "Hurricane's" info when I receive my items back from him.***

congrats

[skinsfan0521]

Thanks. I've pretty much sent out all the email requests that I plan on so far.... just time to wait for successes to start rolling in! haha

I've got tons of ttm requests to send out still, but I guess I'll be crossing off LT & Robin Roberts from my list. :(

Thanks. I've pretty much sent out all the email requests that I plan on so far....

Unless of course I find more email addresses. I'd much prefer to send emails than physical letters because it obviously saves on shipping, photo printing, mailing supplies, etc.

Make sure you spelled it all correctly. It still worked the other day. I wrote again and mentioned that mine was damaged in the mail and I would make a donation if I could get another one to replace that one. I got a response saying that they can only send 1 per person because they get hundreds of requests every week.

That was just like Friday or something.

Got Jay Leno 8x10 Authentic Auto today

Don't bother. I received a horrible preprint today. The signature was just a bad scribble...don't understand why they would want to preprint that sig.
