Cpt. Caveman's TTM Autographs #77

-

Welcome back for the last TTM success post of 2016. Sadly we had a loss in the family on Christmas eve when the most kind, wonderful and loving person iv ever known my grandmother passed away at the age of 85 so that put a damper on our holiday spirit and now 2016 claims more legends when George Michael passed away at the age of 53 and unfortunately Carrie Fisher has also passed away this week at the age of 60 then just a day after her mother a true Hollywood legend Debbie Reynolds passed away at the age of 84. Very sad news and our thoughts and prayers go out to the families. This year just can't end fast enough it's taken enough from us all. Tomorrow starts 2017 and a brand new year full of graphing opportunities is upon us. No matter what method you use to collect autographs be it In person or TTM we wish you all the best of luck in 2017 and may your mailboxes be full and your Sharpies' stay flowing all through the new year. Now on to the final TTM successes of 2016. No mail Monday due to the Christmas holiday but Tuesday brought the only return of the week when we received a Pre Print photo from Rowan Atkinson after just under a years wait. We received both pictures we sent back unsigned along with a Pre Printed facsimile autograph picture. Oh well its better than nothing I guess and it's still a nice photo. Unfortunately that's it for this week and for 2016. It looks like our holiday slump finally came this week. I can't complain we've had an amazing TTM year with so many great successes and its been wonderful being able to share them with you all and we look forward to sharing all 2017 brings. Everyone have a safe and Happy New Years and I'll be back next week with a fresh new year and more TTM autographs and addresses.

Cpt. Caveman's TTM Autographs #76

Welcome back for another weekly TTM success post. I hope you all had a great graphing week and you're ready for Santa to show up tonight. Unfortunately 2016 brings another great loss when Zsa Zsa Gabor passed away this week at the age of 99. Our prayers are also going out for Carrie Fisher who is suffering from major health issues. I get contacted by people all the time looking for help with addresses or help with a TTM attempt and I'm always happy to help another collector when I can. I received an email asking for help finding a few addresses just the other day. A few actors they wanted I have been trying to get for years TTM (I'm a huge Billy Zane Fan) but unfortunately the only downfall of TTM collecting is not everyone signs autographs TTM anymore. Some like Zane use companies like Studio Fan Mail to send pre printed facsimile autographs and others have just stopped signing. So if they no longer sign TTM the only options are trying for them In Person and unless you have time and money to travel or are lucky enough to live around Hollywood or NYC or another major city around the world where you have the opportunities to graph IP that only leaves purchasing the autograph from a reputable dealer. I personally try to avoid EBay but you can still find some nice authentic autographs and some good dealers on eBay but there's also alot of forgeries being passed off. I have a couple amazing In Person dealers I trust and purchase from. In my opinion that's the best way to obtain an autograph when TTM or getting it IP just isn't an option. If you plan on purchasing from an IP dealer I recommend doing your research and find a trustworthy dealer. Ask your friends from the different autograph groups who they use and trust. Do the dealers offer a guarantee? Do they offer proof photos or exact proof photos? Remember exact proof photos are a great form of COA but can also be just as worthless as a COA because they can be faked or stolen from other sources then passed off on some unsuspecting collector with the fake autograph they just purchased. People are even selling proof photos on eBay for the forgery dealers to use to help pass there fakes so just be careful and do your homework. Now on to this weeks TTM successes. Monday brought one return when we received all three pictures back signed from Joan Weldon. She even sent a signed thank you note and only took two months to return. Tuesday brought two more returns. First after only eight days we received both pictures back signed from Lauren Tewes. I recently wrote alot of "The Love Boat" cast and she's the first to reply. To finish off the day we received both pictures back signed on the back by Bradley Bolke and only took two weeks to return. That's it for this week. I hope everyone has a Safe and Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday. I'll be back next week with more TTM autographs and addresses.

Cpt. Caveman's TTM Autographs #75

Welcome back to another weekly TTM success post. Sadly Alan Thicke passed away this week at the age of 69. He had an amazing career and most probably remember him from his role as Dr. Jason Seaver in "Growing Pains". He was great to his fans and a very responsive signer over the years. Another great loss and he will be missed. Unfortunately we have lost alot of amazing actors, actresses and musicians this year and last week I mentioned how I try not to hesitate when writing someone. This is another reason why I don't wait we just never know when we'll loose another one of our hero's or idols. 2016 has definitely been a trying year for fans but its almost over and a new year will soon be upon us full of new and amazing graphing opportunities. Now for this weeks TTM successes. Monday brought two returns. First our pictures we sent to William Daniels returned unsigned in only ten days. We sent two Knight Rider pictures so I'm not sure if he just doesn't sign those or if he's stopped signing or we just got unlucky. Our one success for the day was a great return from Z-Nations Pisay Pao. She signed both pictures we sent and added a signed note saying she sent an extra envelope out. Very cool success we love "Z-Nation" and it took just under four months to return. Thursday brought two more returns. First the extra package Pisay Pao sent us showed up. She sent a super cool black envelope that she painted a big red "Z-Nation" Z on the front. Inside she sent two really nice signed 8x10's and a very cool personal letter that she also painted a smaller red Z on it and splattered it with red paint to look like blood. She's such a great person and an amazing success. To finish off the day we received both pictures back signed from The Childlike Empress herself Ms. Tami Stronach. We love "The Neverending Story" so this is another great success and it took just under two months to return. Friday brought two more returns. First we received both pictures back signed from The Beatles original drummer Pete Best. An super cool success and took two months to return. To finish off the day we received both pictures back signed from Olivia Newton-John. I had about given up on these it took her two years and two weeks to reply from a Via Venue attempt so I'm very happy to finally add her to our collection. To finish off the week Saturday brought one last return. After trying numerous times over the last few years Winter finally received her "American Horror Story : Coven" DVD insert back signed from Kathy Bates. A great addition to our AHS collection and it only took a month to return for this amazing via venue success. That's it for this week. Have a great weekend and I'll be back next week with more TTM autographs and addresses.

Cpt. Caveman's TTM Autographs #74

Welcome back for another weekly TTM success post. I hope everyone had a great week with a full mailbox. Sadly we lost a true American Hero this week when Astronaut John Glenn passed away at the age of 95. Glenn was a veteran of two wars and a member of NASA's Mercury program and was the first American to orbit the earth. Glenn was also a very responsive signer over the years and only stopped signing TTM around the time he had a stroke. I'm always on the hunt for new addresses to write to. As always I never hesitate when sending a TTM request. I usually send mine out within a day or two after I find the address. I do this because TTM collecting is never a guaranteed thing. Addresses or celebs signing habits can change at anytime. An address can have success for some while others get a RTS. Celebs can stop signing or start charging or the address can get flooded with requests causing it to no longer work any number of things can happen so I send as quickly as possible before something changes. That's why I also recommend doing your research before writing. The addresses we have used and shared on my blog may have even changed. The more current posts are fine but if you're looking at older posts over a year or more old the addresses may no longer work so always do your homework before you send and if nothing else you can comment here or message me on Twitter and ask and I'll see if I can find out if the address is still valid or if they have a new working address. I'm always happy to help another collector. Now on to this weeks successes. Monday started the week off with three returns. First we received all three pictures back signed from the legendary John Carpenter and it took just over four months to return. Next Winter received all three pictures back signed from Val Kilmer but they look like secretarials and only took two weeks for them to return. To finish off the day we received another great addition to our Star Trek collection when Tom Troupe returned both pictures we sent back signed and he also sent two extra signed 8x10's and took just under two weeks to return. Thursday brought a great addition to our Friday the 13th collection when we received our picture and index card back signed by Whitney Rydbeck. His signature didn't show up well on the front of the photo but he was nice enough to also sign the back and it took just under two months for him to reply. Friday brought one amazing return when Winter received a signed Playbill from the cast of "The Front Page" with Nathan lane and John Goodman. She's very happy with this return and it only took her a month to get it. That's it for this week. Have a great weekend and I'll be back next week with more TTM autographs and address.
