Brasco Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 I am an autograph collector and I enjoy collecting alumni. Has anyone had any luck with mailing to former players? If so who? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone who can set me in the right direction, would be greatly appreciated!! Thanx in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZSIOUX Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 I haven't looked myself yet, but am looking for the address to get a hold of Matt Smaby. I have a photo of him I'd like to have signed. Anyone who can set me in the right direction, would be greatly appreciated!! Thanx in advance! i worked for pro hockey teams and a pro basketball team out of college and its a crap shoot when you send items to get signed to the team. i handled this exact type of thing when it comes to fan mail and autos. some may get signed. most get thrown away in the garbage. its amazing how many things get sent daily to players and i highly doubt getting athletes home addresses are easy to get unless you know someone. best of luck sending to a team but words of wisdom is send something you dont mind never getting back. AHL may be a different story if you want to try smabys AHL teams address from their homepage. he plays for Norfolk as of now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brasco Posted October 9, 2008 Author Share Posted October 9, 2008 I have done a bit more research and I was able to find some players addresses on whitepages.com Also, Jonathan Toews recently signed an 8x10 I sent him in care of the Chicago Blackhawks at the United Center's address. It took about 3 months to receive a response. Tony Hrkac has also signed through his coaching office. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brasco Posted October 16, 2008 Author Share Posted October 16, 2008 I sent Dave Christian a 1980 miracle jersey a week or two ago and I received it back signed by him today. He signed the '3' on the back of the jersey in gold. Awesome addition to my former Sioux autograph collection! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His nephew is playing at SCSU now so whenever I go to a Huskie game I'm bringing stuff for him to sign in case he is there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His nephew is playing at SCSU now so whenever I go to a Huskie game I'm bringing stuff for him to sign in case he is there. I found an address on whitepages.com I don't have it written down but it should still be on that site if it has not been blocked. Another good address resource is autographchaser.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brasco Posted November 7, 2008 Author Share Posted November 7, 2008 Ryan Duncan recently signed a Hobey Baker puck for me. Great signer, just as all of the current players seem to be. It is so nice to cheer for players that are gracious and thankful for the support! Regardless of the win, loss record it is difficult to think of any UND alumni or current players who have not treated Sioux fans with respect and appreciation.

Brasco Posted December 3, 2008 Author Share Posted December 3, 2008 Today I received an autographed puck back from former Sioux great Craig Ludwig. I took under 1 week and I found his address on autographchaser.com Thanks Mr. Ludwig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAR Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 Not a hockey player, but I just received a Jim Kleinsasser signed UND mini helmet back in less than 1 week.

Oh yeah and he can catch the ball as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAR Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 He's pretty popular already at SCSU and did a pretty good job last weekend. Too bad he picked the loser school...that squad will never win an ncaa tourney game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brasco Posted December 20, 2008 Author Share Posted December 20, 2008 Just received an awesome return from Reggie Morelli. He signed the picture of him up on his teammates shoulder with blood dripping down his nose, returned a brief questionaire I sent him completed with advice on life/hockey and his greatest memory as a Sioux player, and a hand-written note thanking me for my letter. Very cool from one of the founding legends of the Sioux tradition! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very cool from one of the founding legends of the Sioux tradition! Real real cool. Morelli was one Ralph's inner circle guys. I think that Morelli was in charge of building The Ralph, at least from an owner's on site representative perspective. He, like many, will probably be forever stunned that folks will pay a buck or more for a bottle of water but as long as they do, hey, why not sell it to them!

Brasco Posted December 22, 2008 Author Share Posted December 22, 2008 Another great success today! Bobby Joyce signed a game puck in gold Sharpie and included his UND number (#20). I found his address on autographchaser.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep hoping UND adds a bunch of old pictures to their historical photos on their photo shop site, but so far no such luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep hoping UND adds a bunch of old pictures to their historical photos on their photo shop site, but so far no such luck. I used a really nice scanner and scanned it from one of the UND hockey books. It turned out well and his signature is very nice. PM me and I can e-mail it to you as an attachment.

Brasco Posted January 22, 2009 Author Share Posted January 22, 2009 Mike Commodore signed the 'Commodore and the Cup' print from when he brought the cup to Grand Forks in less than 1 week! I sent the print care of the BlueJackets and included a stamped, self addressed mailing tube. He signed it with a silver paint sharpie that I sent. The signature looks great and matches the color of the Cup it is a great addition to my Sioux collection! Thanks Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodbutcher Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 I have been lucky enough to catch some of the guys coming through my town with their respective teams. Two weekends ago got to meet JPL and Fabian and had them sign my jersey. Both were very cordial and more than happy to spend a few minutes talking with a Sioux fan. I'm hoping to add Radke, Bina and O'connell to the jersey when they come through town.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brasco Posted March 7, 2009 Author Share Posted March 7, 2009 Today I received a signed 8x10 back from Travis Zajac! I sent it in care of the Devils I sent the photo about 4 months ago and had forgotten it was out there. Nice surprise and thanks Travis!
