Through the Mail-Gilbert Perreault

 I knew it was bound to happen at some point with the amount of requests I have been successful with over the last few years, but the sheer number of returns I've been getting has slowly been dwindling down. It was to be expected as when I started out on this project I was specifically targeting the athletes that had the highest % of success rate and quick returns that were cheap. From there, I started going after some of the guys that were a bit pricier, and then when I figured out the Canadian mailing situation I started sending to players that resided there as well. When you combine all these facts with the main fact that 98% of the time I'm going to only send requests to Hall of Famers, then you start working with a limited pool of players. As such, the number of pending requests I currently have is smaller than it was during any point over the last few years sans the times I took some brief hiatuses. That being said, the dry spell was ended with a return coming back from former Buffalo Sabres and hockey Hall of Famer Gilbert Perreault, who sent this back from one of my Canadian requests.

This is a very nice signature, and Mr. Perreault was kind enough to add the HOF 1990 inscription. This is a very nice autograph on a vintage card, which I'm beginning to really like the look of on these players who played in the earlier years.
