I love collecting autographs. There's just something about having an item that you know was touched and "created" by the player. I started collecting autographs as a kid at Dodger games. Morphed in to collecting only Hall of famers in the 80's and 90's, but have now turned my attention to autographs of members of famous teams. Every once in awhile, when I have a bad experience with a player at a show, I wonder why I still collect. Then, something happens that reminds me. Last week, I sent an autograph request to Tex Clevenger from the 61 Yankees. I sent a letter asking him to sign two enclosed 3x5 cards (one just in case the first one was smudged etc). He not only signed both perfectly, he also enclosed a signed Ron Lewis postcard and a 1963 Topps card. He response came back within a week. Honestly, I couldn't have been happier if I had found a great price on an authentic Babe Ruth autograph.
