Dick Van Dyke (Semi)Success

Guys, unless the world ignores these fools then they will keep going.

Take my advice ... click onto their profile, and then the big shiny "add foe" option. Voila, no need to read DiamondDave's rantings any more. In fact, it would be great if the world did it, because then I wouldn't see you all quoting his immaturity across the board in your responses.

But you just can't do it can you? You recommend it for everyone else, yet you'll never do it yourself. You can't.
You crave the attention.
Again, I've gotten plenty of positive feedback for standing up to the trolls here. Funny thing is, the trolls are starting to "circle the wagons" so to speak. They don't like the fact that someone is calling them out for what they really are on bit. It's the same three or four with an occasional oddball wanting some attention. Pretty soon they'll go away, or change their behavior....which is actually what the majority of posters here want.

Two points.. We don't want the attention. You're the one bragging about all the messages you get. It's clear you're the one who wants attention. Secondly... what the MAJORITY of posters want? So you speak for most posters on this forum? Hilarious. Who voted you leader?

You're still reading aren't you?
Point made.

Hi The Rev:)

Thank you for your feedback

At which address did you send your autograph request please?

Fanmail

Here are autographs from a recent private signing. Totally nothing like the ttm autographs.

There are six posted. The book is mine. Glad to finally get a REAL signature.

And here's a photo of Dick signing. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid ... =1&theater

He's sitting down, taking his time and YET...the autograph doesn't look the normal ttms that are probably signed sitting down, taking time for each signature BUT are signed by someone else.

Credit goes to Todd of Todd's Autograph Arena.

I sent to the address here on fanmail

I'm telling you this looks like his TTM.

[jason1980s]

It is not the same signature as the normal ones received ttm.

The secretarial is not only neater but more elaborate.

Now the one you posted is a little neater than his messier signatures BUT it is the same signature as all the IP, private signing, book signing signatures. BUT, it is not the same as the secretarial. It isn't.

I think you actually hurt your case by posting a signature where he is in the photo with the item signed because it is not the same as the ttm secs. I can't stress that enough.

People need to refer especially to the private signing signatures. Not only are the same handwriting, though a little messier than the one you posted, but they are completely (and really the one you posted too) nothing like the ttm secretarials.

Now I don't know if you have any of his autographs in your collection and that makes you interested in trying to get someone saying "ttm are real" but at some point you need to face facts:
the most experienced collectors know Dick doesn't sign ttm, the book signing, private signing and even the few in person signatures do not match the ttm no matter where Dick is signing, whether it's at a desk or standing up on the street they do not match.
the private signing was done primarily to give fans a chance to get REAL autographs because they know Dick does not sign ttm for real. They didn't do it to make him "millions" or for them to make "millions" they did it because they want Dick's real autograph to get into the hands of fans/collectors and even dealers selling the secretarials.

Again, not trying to be harsh. I'm just trying to empart my years of collecting experience, which surely has resulted in both successs and dissapointments (getting secretarial signatures like Dick Van Dyke's is a dissapointment!).
