I also saw a Reggie Jackson that I found very
Interesting.

somethign weird is going on
there is a "spree" of responses that are unusual from the celebrities usual signing patterns...

this is by no means supposed to offend anyone....
there is a response from Nancy reagan that is not like any from her in before successes....
there is a response from Stephen harper, Prime minister of Canada thats unlike responses from him....
and there was a tom hanks response that is different than any other anyone has seen on here before...

either:
something is hinky with these members
or
they paid the signer
or
they wrote really epic letters...

has anyon thought about this???

Not to mention Jake Gyllenhaal!

I personally put it down to goodwill in the holliday season

there's nothing wrong with telling the truth, its when people fabricate stuff, thats frustrating....
and the people receiving the request are none the wiser, cause they dont know you...and theyd prolly never do a check for your "qualifications"

Not saying this is the case but all someone has to do is go to google images and find autographed photos of any and everyone. *cough*Liz Taylor*cough* :razz: I'm not saying someone is being dishonest per se, just seems odd when no one else on here has had any success with such rare celebs that usually would never sign TTM.

I can't believe there are people who go so low just to get an autograph

There was a blue moon last month- it explains everything!

Yes I thought the same thing myself. However; and I'm not saying this is what happened, the letter probably played a HUGE role in the success.

Then there are those who get kicks playing with others minds. Ther are planty of occuarances where a member creates a really rare "success" simply to rile the boards for their enjoyment.

I've been doing this for so long nothing suprises me at this point. I've realized LONG ago it's not worth worrying about what someone else has or what they claim they got TTM. use that time/effort to send your own letters and build your own collection.

One thing is nobody is impossible. The biggest stars might send out afew autographs every blue moon. Just because they don't regularly sign dosen't mena they refuse all mail requests.

sorry...
i meant weird successes from low profile people who have just joined the forum...
