For example I got Helen Slater to sign a custom Smallville card. She only appeared on the show once...But, played Clark's Kryptonian mom Lara.

On a side note..Speaking of Alan Rachins. He is very nice. I had sent him a custom Batman:Animated card as Clock King. After not hearing anything back. I emailed his website and he wrote me back and had me send to his agent again. After a few more months. I emailed to see if he ever got it. He didn't and gave me his home address to send it. He sent my card back signed and a short note appreciating the effort I went to get his sig. Funny thing is many months later I got back my original card signed and a signed photo he sent.
When I wrote to Alan Rachins, I just sent the Clock King card and a small SASE. He sent me his own 8x10 photo and paid for the extra postage, which I thought was a really nice gesture.

That was my first batch Monday. Had a total of 40 going out, and I got 20 more to do this weekend. I hope it goes very well lol. I sent to some people who arent known to sendback, but I gotta take a chance

WildChild96, margotchanning: I love The Golden Girls :DD I have Betty, Rue and Bea. Unluckily I don't have Estelle :(

HappinessStan: That sounds cool, it must be interesting to collect them because there's been so many :DDD Are you collecting all of them, the old ones too?

arrowsup: Wau! Nice collection! :DD Yes, you're right! There's lot of characters in Cold Case too and it's nice to chase them :DDDD

DarbyD53: I've been thinking of starting to collect Simpsons too! :DD How's it going?

How did you get Kevin McCarthy? I sent him two letters, but never heard back from either address.
I actually purchased a signed photo of him back in the 90s. He used to do a lot of signing at cons; I'm pretty sure he did a few last year.

Oh I have Alan Rachins, too! I forgot about him. He voiced Clock King in the animated Batman series, and he signed a Clock King trading card and sent me a photo. Also Debbie Reynolds, David Wayne (one of the Big Daddy actors) and Jerry Orbach. And of course, Bea, Betty, and Rue.

I've gotten Kevin IP within the last 6 months, but his health is not great and he has trouble signing. His signature is very shaky.

Blanche's boyfriends' could be a collection on their own! :lol:

I didn't send Sid anything to sign but I sent return postage. I may try him again soon and send an IC or something. :)
Good luck! :)
