This is my fastest return yet, only 14 days from Henri Richard who was kind enough to sign my custom and send a few other things back along with it.
Henri retired in 1975 and was elected to the Hockey Hall Of Fame in 1979. In 1998 he was ranked by the Hockey News number 29 on their list of 100 Greatest Hockey Players.
Like I mentioned earlier, Mr. Richard sent a few other items as well; check under the cut to check them out.
A blog for sharing my hockey card collecting experience, TTM sending and receiving attempts and a blog about hockey in general.

Henri Richard, Wendel Clark and Johnny Bower Send-offs
Had some time to spare this morning so I put together another four customs to send-off and hopefully have returned and signed as part of my TTM collection. I've been watching a lot of the Legends of Hockey series lately so I did Henri Richard and Johnny Bower customs. The Clark card came after watching the 1993 second round playoff series between the Leafs and Blues; and what a series it was.
And if you've noticed there's a fourth card in the photo; Pat Falloon. For some odd reason, I was on a Falloon kick earlier in the week, reading about his career and what happened to him after the NHL - I even found myself digging out my Pat Falloon hockey cards! So I decided to create a custom for him to have sent off and hopefully returned signed - but sadly I was unable to find a valid address for the guy. I even tried sending a Facebook message to his mom (at least I think it was)! She has yet to get back to me.
The reverse of the cards are underneath the cut.
