Probably 30 years ago, I had a lady vendor at work who one day just happened to mention she was married to Buddy Ebsen. "You are married to Jed Clampet?" just flew out of my mouth! I explained that I was a HUGE fan of The Beverly Hillbillies. Was probably my favorite show as a kid. I had to ask her if he might sign something for me. She said she would do better than that. She said he often rides around with her and would let me know next time she came to my office. A few weeks later she was due to come by so I brought this to work. Sure enough he was waiting in the car for her when we went down stairs. I of course gushed and recounted my favorite episodes. He graciously signed my book and upon my request, gave me one of his patented "Whoo Doggies". What a wonderful guy. And, nobody tells Jed Clampet where to sign! This is freaking awesome!!! For me - he'll always be Barnaby Jones! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a gig for a music executive in the Hollywood Hills and some mentioned he would be there so I took it with me. Actually got to talk to him for a few minutes. Loved the show as a kid. One year I lusted for the Napoleon Solo handgun for Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll never forget his face/lip-scraping death scene down the side of the wall. On 9/28/2021 at 9:23 AM, TacosTacosTacosTacos said: Here's Walt, pre-dinosaur... Very nice! Austin's signature has been the same forever. And the Claremont sig is so... 'Not over the logo' small! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am planning on Heroes Con in Charlotte in June 2022. Some of the big names I have gotten are Mark Bagley, Joe Sinnott and Steve McNiven. I have several other personally signed comics including one of my personal favorites X-Faxtor 87 by Peter David and Joe Quesada Cool book! Do you remember where you got Bill Anderson's autograph at and what year? I've been trying to add him to a comic I have but never see him pop up on guest lists.

It was a real thrill getting to meet Kinstler! I see you met him at the same show I did, SDCC in 2006. I am not aware of him making any other convention appearances but maybe he did.
