My hobby is collecting autographs. I started doing this about 15 years ago, and then got out of it. I just started collecting again. Some of my autographs were obtained in person, some were purchased from reputable dealers and some were obtained through the mail by writing to the celebrity.

Paul Rudd - Anchorman, Friends, I Love You, Man, many more

This is one of my favorite successes in quite some time. Paul Rudd is one of my favorite actors. I hadn't seen a lot of successes for him, but I had an address for a film he was shooting, so I took a chance and sent him a request. I sent a letter, SASE, 8x10 and 5x7 to the "This is Forty" production office on June 30, 2011. On July 28, 2011, I received both photos back signed and personalized. Very, very happy!

Steven Weber - Wings

This is one of my purchased autographs. Weber is probably best remembered for his starring role on "Wings."

Robin Tunney - The Mentalist, The Craft, Empire Records, etc.

For whatever reason, I love the movie "Empire Records." Robin Tunney plays one of the many main characters in the film. I sent a letter, SASE and 2 8x10s to the production office of "The Mentalist" on Sept. 29, 2010. Sometime around Aug. 1, 2011, I received a different 8x10 back from her inscribed and signed. Pleased to have this one to add to my collection!

Aubrey Plaza - Parks and Recreation, etc.

I think Aubrey Plaza's character, April, is one of the funniest parts of the hilarious show, "Parks and Recreation." I sent a letter, SASE and 2 5x7 photos to Aubrey while she was filming "The To-Do List" on July 6, 2011. On July 23, 2011, I received both of my photos back signed and she wrote notes on the back of both of them. Awesome!




 The funny thing about this success is that I had actually purchased a signed photo of Aubrey and received it in the mail on the same day as these.

Alan Ruck - Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Spin City, Speed, etc.

I purchased this one recently. Ferris Bueller is one of my favorite movies of all time, so I was pleased to add this iconic image of Cameron Frye to the collection.

Clark Gregg - Iron Man, Iron Man 2, Thor, The Old Adventures of New Christine, etc.

I sent another request to Clark Gregg via the set for "The Avengers" because I wanted a pic of him as Agent Coulson signed. I sent on July 11, 2011 and received my 5x7 back signed on July 23, 2011. Nice to add this one to the collection.

Jennifer Lawrence - X-Men: First Class, Winter's Bone

I sent a letter, SASE and 2 5x7 photos to Ms. Jennifer Lawrence via the "Hunger Games" movie set on June 10, 2011. I got both photos back signed a few weeks later. I think she's a big up and coming star, so I'm thrilled to add her to my collection.

Kevin Bacon - Footloose, X-Men: First Class, etc.

I really enjoyed Kevin Bacon's performance in the latest X-Men movie, so I figured I'd try to get his autograph. I found that he was filming a movie called "Jayne Mansfield's Car" in Georgia, so I sent a letter, SASE and 5x7 to the production office. I sent on June 20, 2011 and received my photo back signed on July 23, 2011. Pleased to add Kevin Bacon to the collection.
