Default AWESOME Former Disneyland Cast Member Autograph Today!!

Today I got in the mail, not one...but TWO autographed pictures from Mr. Steve Martin (former Disneyland Cast Member).
I wrote Mr. Martin a letter telling him we have much in common...both former CM's at DL, both have a love of and perform comedy magic, he plays the banjo....well, I HAVE my Grandpa's old banjo.
Anyway, he autographed TWO pictures for me and I got them today!

I sent the letter and photos on January 2, 2008. So it took him almost 8 months. Not too bad. I've had autographs come in a year and 1/2 later sometimes!

By the way, you can write Mr. Steve Martin in care of "L.A. Films" - P.O. Box 929, Beverly Hills, CA (don't remember zip). It's the same address listed on his official website.

Yes, my signature bar are all photos of me performing a few of the characters I did. My favorite is Pluto, but C-3PO was an absolute blast! Something I'll never forget!

Stevie is one of my favorites...way to go !!

My daughter has lots of pics with celebs when she works at the various award shows and goes to the after parties. Sometimes she gets autographs for me. She just sent me an autographed pic of Jennifer Love Hewitt (or Hewitt Love, whichever it is ,lol).
But my favorite is a happy birthday autograph from Colin Mochrie from Whose Line Is It.

Colin Mochrie is one that I'm trying to get as well, just haven't found a working address for him. But I keep trying.

Steve Martin rocks! I'm glad he responded back to you! How long did it take for the two autograph requests to come to your house from the time you sent it?

I sent the two pictures and a letter to him on January 2, 2008. So it took almost 8 months for him to respond. But I think most of that time he was filming the sequel to "The Pink Panther".
