TTM Help please

I just picked up a signed 1974T Brian Downing RC and after seeing everyone multi-signed cards I figured with Downing being my favorite player growing up that this would be the card to to try it on. Could someone help me with the address for the remaining 3 guys on the card please and their success rate:

Ed Armbrister
Rich Bladt
Bake McBride

Thanks,

Brian

    I know that Armbrister lives out of the country and is very difficult to obtain.....I've seen McBride signing at shows and I really don't know the signing habits of Bladt

    Back in the 1970s I can give you an idea of how these guys were in person...

    Bake McBride was a the time one of the toughest IP signatures to get. You definitely don't want to go through the trouble of getting the other three guys only to lose it sending to McBride unless you know it's coming back. Others have told me that even if he did sign it was only for one or two people then he'd run off.

    Armbrister was OK, moderately difficult I'd say but not impossible.

    Bladt was fine the only time I had a chance.

    Downing was great.

    Downing was my childhood idol and it's taken me forever to find his RC with a vintage signature on it. After reading this about Bake being difficult and Armbrister living out of the country, I think this might stay single-signed for now. Thanks for all the input guys.
  • A good rule is to never send what you can't afford to lose. Seems like this might be a tough one to pull off.
