Doran ... as always .... a real nice work of art!!!!!

fur72 · April 17, 2009 6:41AM

Grats on your first of hopefully many successful TTM requests. I see some nice cut sig cards coming out of this.

VitoCo1972 · April 17, 2009 6:47AM

I love that design Doran, great work and nice success!!

storm888 · April 17, 2009 7:42AM

Among my favorite players, and a swell fellow.

I detect some age creeping into that oh so familiar signature.

Gorgeous card.

70chip · April 17, 2009 7:56AM

That's a really cool piece. Congrats!!!

perkdog · April 17, 2009 7:57AM

Good for you Doran! Im glad you were succesful, you deserve it!

MBMiller25 · April 17, 2009 7:59AM

Doran, Congrats, thats a cool card.

Paul, Its about those Perkies! Man thats nice.

zep33 · April 17, 2009 8:24AM

very nice Doran!!

HeritageAddict · April 18, 2009 11:08AM

Thanks for the compliments guys, it's pretty cool getting an auto back on a card you made. Cory you are right, I'll probably be making a few cuts, I actually made the cards for mailing out just a little smaller than a standard card so that I could use them for customs if I wanted to.

Bottom9th · April 18, 2009 11:13AM

I just love those custom cards. You have an incredible talent!

BPorter26 · April 18, 2009 11:13AM

Doran, Congrats on the auto and that's a sweet card. As always great work.

killingdream · April 18, 2009 11:29AM

Did Snider sign for no fee? It looks very nice!!

HeritageAddict · April 20, 2009 8:30AM

Here are my two newest additions, Ernie Banks and Bobby Doerr. Guess I'm lucky that I got the Banks back as the post office ripped the envelope and card and they were in one of those "we care" postal envelopes.

zep33 · April 20, 2009 8:33AM

WOW!!

that's awesome, who else you got coming?

nam812 · April 20, 2009 8:42AM

Duke Snider and Ernie Banks are signing for free, and Dave Parker wants $20. What a joke.

Great successes so far Doran.

HeritageAddict · April 20, 2009 8:54AM

Mike I have about 40 more out right now, mostly baseball.

brianwintersfan · April 20, 2009 10:26AM

Very addictive indeed!
Congrats

HeritageAddict · April 24, 2009 7:38AM

Here are my newest returns. Sparky included a note (see below) saying he can no longer sign through the mail, but he still signed my custom which I am grateful for as it looks like he is having a really hard time signing. Musial and Schmidt didn't sign the customs, but at least I got something back.

BunchOBull · April 24, 2009 7:47AM

You must have had a very nice letter or he was impressed with your custom card ambition...pretty cool that he did that.

nam812 · April 24, 2009 9:52AM

Nice returns Doran.

metrotheme · April 24, 2009 10:03AM

How'd you get Schmidt? I thought he didn't sign TTM.

HeritageAddict · April 25, 2009 1:25AM

Thanks guys. Ross, yeah I was pretty lucky, but honestly after seeing how hard of a time he has signing I feel bad about sending a request out to him at all. Mark, for Schmidt I sent my request to the Hall of Fame and guess I got lucky.

bman90278 · April 25, 2009 1:27AM

Congrats Doran, I think you are hooked now. Great Job!

Brian

HeritageAddict · April 25, 2009 9:59AM

Only one return today, but I'm happy with it.

Dboneesq · April 25, 2009 10:15AM

Doran ... another nice one! Mr. Ford signed for free? WOW! I think you will get some autos that others will not, because of the magnificent cards that you send to the athletes. Just like Sparky Anderson ... looks like he sent mine back a day or two before you got yours back ... mine unsigned, yours signed, with the same note that you got from him stating he can no longer sign.

HeritageAddict · April 25, 2009 10:23AM

Doug, Whitey didn't sign for free, but it was worth the fee for me.

Dboneesq · April 25, 2009 10:46AM

<< <i>Doug, Whitey didn't sign for free, but it was worth the fee for me. >>

OH .. OK ... I guess those magnificent cards can work only so many wonders! LMAO

RonBurgundy · April 25, 2009 12:03PM

baseballfan · April 25, 2009 11:35PM

thanks
fred

mccardguy1 · April 26, 2009 12:01AM

I am curious as to where you sent the Banks request and if you paid any fees. Also how long did it take you too get the card back??

HeritageAddict · April 27, 2009 6:53AM

Here are my two returns for today, unfortunately Joe Frazier came back as a return to sender.

4/27 Whitey Herzog & Gil McDougald

HeritageAddict · April 28, 2009 6:27AM

Unfortunately my Jack Nicklaus came back as a RTS no such number unable to forward, if any one has a current address please pm me. I did however receive my Pete Rose back signed, which makes it a good day!

leathtech · April 28, 2009 6:32AM

<< <i>Unfortunately my Jack Nicklaus came back as a RTS no such number unable to forward, if any one has a current address please pm me. I did however receive my Pete Rose back signed, which makes it a good day!

Wow! Great stuff what address did you use for Rose (did you sent it to Vegas???)

lsutigers1973 · April 28, 2009 6:36AM

<< <i>Unfortunately my Jack Nicklaus came back as a RTS no such number unable to forward, >>

IF you ever get a good address for Nicklaus, please forward it to me.

Did you have to include a check to get the Rose auto or did he just require a tip on the 1st race at Santa Anita?

Dboneesq · April 28, 2009 6:59AM

DORAN ... AWESOME looking Rose! CONGRATS!

DoctorK · April 28, 2009 7:05AM

What address did you use for the Nicklaus?

HeritageAddict · April 28, 2009 8:01AM

Thanks guys, I used the Vegas address for Rose and there was no charge.

DoctorK: the address I used for Nicklaus was 437 Vista Ridge Dr.

lsutigers1973 · April 28, 2009 8:25AM

<< <i>DoctorK: the address I used for Nicklaus was 437 Vista Ridge Dr. >>

Mike (VitoCo) gave me a good address to use but I can't seem to find it.

HeritageAddict · April 29, 2009 7:32AM

Thanks Bill, I got up with Mike. One return for today, The Mad Hungarian.

Pigs · April 29, 2009 7:39AM

That's cool Al signed it with the Mad Hungarian included. I wonder who gave him that name and is he in fact of Hungarian descent? I ask the deep down investigative questions

Dboneesq · April 29, 2009 8:25AM

Nice return ... Hrabosky was one of 13 1982 Donruss cards that I send out earlier this morning.

HeritageAddict · April 30, 2009 9:53AM

One return for today, first Negro League auto, Mr. Bob Motley.

HeritageAddict · May 1, 2009 7:22AM

Three more great returns today, and one RTS which was Sandy Koufax and fully expected, but I had to try.

Dboneesq · May 1, 2009 8:07AM

Very nice Doran ... keep it up. Cards really look AWESOME!

HeritageAddict · May 2, 2009 7:23AM

Thanks Doug. Here is my return for today, Charlie Joiner.

Dboneesq · May 2, 2009 7:24AM

Doran ... it's a nice feeling to get the returns in the mail, EH? lol

HeritageAddict · May 4, 2009 7:46AM

What a mail day, 8 returns!
5/4 Curt Simmons, Neale Henderson, Jesse Rogers, William McCrary, Chuck Bednarik, Nick Buoniconti, Harry Carson, & Bob Lilly

nam812 · May 4, 2009 7:49AM

SICK CUTS BRAH!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dboneesq · May 4, 2009 8:11AM

Doran ... isn't it GREAT when you open your mailbox and see all the returns! As always, AWESOME cards and nice sigs to go along with them.

I received three back today ... will be posting them on my thread in a little while.

HeritageAddict · May 4, 2009 8:31AM

It is nice getting that many Doug, but it also means that you will have days with none. I'd almost rather get one or two a day.
