Ben "Cooter" Jones: Dukes of Hazzard Success (Ben L. Jones)

This is a multi-part story, so bear with me.

When I was young, Ben Jones made an appearance at the local mall. This was sometime in the early 80's. We went and meet him and I had always assumed we had gotten his autograph on a photo.
Once I started collecting, I went home and found an unsigned photo. Disheartening but it is what it is.

I then found out he sold pics signed though his website only. http://www.cootersplace.com/

Sometime at the end of April I ordered a signed photo at what I thought was a good price. By some matter of fate, I received and unsigned photo. So I called them up and they said they are not sure what happened but If I returned the photo that they could get it signed when Ben was next visiting which was May 21st. I also mentioned that I had a vintage photo that I would love to get signed and they told me to send and Ben would also sign it.

So today I received both of my photos signed and personalized. I am over the moon with the results.

John schnieder signs as well. What's funny(or I think) is they all sell the same cast pic,only signed by them on their webpage. I told my wife I was going to get that same cast pic from each site just signed by them so when I flip through my book I would have 5 pics signed individually

Also Roscoe is still alive. Www.jamesbest.com I believe.

Good luck!!
