Autographs by mail. Scans included!
A few years ago I sent out loads of letters, cards, and pictures to athletes asking for autographs. I was amazed and pleasantly pleased to get over 40% of them back. Most were from the 2005 Topps All American set, sadly I have parted with all that were not personalized to me.
Imagine my surprise when I got this today over a year after I sent it! Also Y.A. Was kind enough to send a bigger higher quality photo Personalized!
A classic photo and the "Sorry Frank" quote is priceless!
Without a doubt this ranks with my Ali Auto/memorabilia & Jim Thorpe items. Not an athlete but a Great Ohioan, a class Senator, and the first man to Orbit the Earth! John Glenn Totally personalized!!!
Thanks for looking.

Thanks everybody!
I was amazed when I got the John Glenn auto back. I sent about a one page letter to him (which I am sure an aide read) talking about being from Ohio, meeting him as a Cub Scout, and always looking up to him. That is definatly one of my top five PC items..
