Back from Phoenix

Well, it ws hot, dry, and downright gorgeous in Arizona. I came home with autographs from Kasey Kahne, Kurt Busch (no surprise, he is GREAT about signing), Reed Sorensen, David Stremme, Justin Allgaier, Sam Hornish, Jr., and Greg Biffle.

I am looking forward to Michigan in June. I will print up some of the pictures that I took, and get thos signed, hopefully.

Until next time...

Off to Phoenix!

I leave Friday morning for Phoenix. I am hoping to get a few autographs, naturally, while I am there. I usually take a lot of supplies (8X10S, HERO CARDS, TRADING CARDS, etc.) with me on race weekends. I find that different situations call for different autographs. My plan is to scope out the haulers and find out the scheduled signings. I would love to come backwith six or seven different autographs. We'll see.

I will be sure to post some pics if I get some rare or famous autographs!

James Worthy


April 6, 2009 -


I traveled to Detroit to get James Worthy's autograph. I am working on a NBA at 50 lithograph and trying to meet each player in person. Mr. Worthy was the 21st autograph on my litho. I am photographing each player signing it, and making a log for posterity...

The event was in coordination with the NCAA Final Four, held in Detroit this year. Of all the players I have met, very few had what I would call a "bad attitude". I do not atribute this to them, personally, they might just be having a bad day.

Speaking of a bad day, I will not get to meet Jeff Gordon until the Chicago race. The Phoenix event was cancelled, which means Bruce and I are just attending the races. I say "just",because we would not have travelled to the race if we knew we were not going to get to meet Jeff.

Until next time...
