So this previous Saturday I went to an expo where I got my football autographed by a few past and present NYG players. When I got home, I received an autograph through the mail. At first I was all "Sam Elliott finally sent me an autograph!"

But nope. It wasn't Sam Elliott, which is sad because I really love Sam. lol. I opened it to see none-other then Don Rickles authentic autograph. I was surprised because he recently passed away and the envelope was dated May 3rd from the post office. Hmm.

I told my parents this and my mom said the autograph was probably on his desk or something and when people were cleaning they came across it, or that it took longer to get from CA to our state and that he mailed it long time ago.

So here's the autograph link since the picture is huge in the preview. I'm not posting the envelope because I don't think it would do any one any good any more. :(

I really loved Don Rickles as Mr. Potato Head in Toy Story and am curious how they are going to handle the character. We truly did lose a Hollywood Icon... RIP- Don Rickles.

Hi,
Do you remember when you mailed it to him? I had mailed mine for him to sign in December of last year. Thanks!

Good for you I had heard that if he thought you were a pro asking for his auto form letter 5 8x10s his secretary signed but if you wrote a letter in your own hand he would sign. Maybe one of the last things he signed. He was great in kellys heroes.

I know I sent the letter this year... I usually send typed letters but always hand write my signature. I have awful penmanship. The autograph does look like an elderly person had signed it.
