My name is Dave Auwerda and like you I am an avid autograph collector. I’ve been collecting since I was a child in the late 1970’s, but have been a serious collector since the mid-1990’s.

In 2010, I started creating my own custom designs to send off for signatures, and I am running into the same request from a player to send via the MLBPAA… I’m trying to get Cleo James, who played for the Cubs and Dodgers. He apparently is requesting people use the MLBPAA to request his signature, but I can’t figure out how to go about doing that. I stumbled on your article about Jim Coates doing the same thing and was wondering if you have had any clarity on the issue.

If you’re interested, my website is attached and you can see some of my work.

Thanks for any help you can offer.

Dave
