640x580 and above is acceptable.

Not sure if you will have much luck with Tippett. I've never seen a success with him outside of his playing days with the Patsies. Does he still work in the front office there?

I know that mine isn't a scan so you probably can't tell if it is pp or not... And I didn't know that Terry Bradshaw is a good signer, I ought to send to him. Good luck everybody on your requests.
I got lucky on Foster. I had a connection at the time who got me all the autographs I wanted, and I shamefully abused the connection as much as I could for 50+ autographs and a signed team football. (It's too bad David Anderson doesn't play for them anymore.) Foster was one of those ones in the batch at the time that everybody said, "Why do you want that one?" Future prospects!

I'm no expert, but it certainly could be Foster. Keep in mind when a guy walks off the practice field and he's tired, or he's sitting down, the autograph could be affected by a variety of external factors. I remember when I got Steve McNair his rookie season in Houston, it was a hothouse and he had just finished afternoon practice. He signed 100 or so autographs afterwards- so mine looked like crap, but I know it was him. In the case of the Foster, what you want to look at is if the autographs that other people get from him on that same photo look the same as yours. I gave you sort of his formal autograph look. If it was something completely different, you'd know for sure that it was a secretariat.

The Terry Bradshaw made my month. I mean I was ecstatic to get Randall Cunningham back finally, but if I can pull off a Phil Simms, Bob Griese, and a few of these other fish that I have pending, I may just call it a year!

I know what you mean leebo. I bought the Rackrs customs to send out for the ex players before my time and the players who I don't have cards for and they're great. I just bought a new mixed sports and am sending out to Willie Davis, YA Tittle, Dan Fouts, Phil Simms as soon as I get them! I highly recommend them!

Very glad to see some Shaun Alexander successes. I sent a request out to him back in early December, so hopefully I'll get a return soon!

That's pretty cool leebo. I got a Bob Griese in December, he is a sporadic yet reliable signer. Also knicksfan or anybody else who got the Arian Foster return, could you post a pic of your autograph? I have a feeling that they could be autopens. A guy in my foster thread said that his signature looks similar to the one I got, but is higher up on the picture...

I dont know how to post pictures, but I can see there are differences for example on the letter t in foster, the top of your t resembles a capital T where the horizontal line is on top of the verticle line but mine resembles a lower case t where the horizonal line is in the middle and mine is personalized.

And on the thing to the right of the a (not sure if its a r or i) there are more circles. So either they are real, sec or he has different forms of autopens which i've seen before.

Hmm interesting, ok.. To post a picture all I do is take a pic on my phone, text it to my email, download it then upload it to photobucket.

So I have a box of football cards somewhere in my house but I can't find them right now because we had a house fire in the past. I want to send cards to retired football cards and found this.

Do you think its worth the price?
