Wow, I didn't know how close it was to having Craig on it, what a story! I know Anderson is tough, but he didn't pass away until 1989, hard to imagine there aren't more signed copies out there. He was found with an autograph request in his hand when he passed away so I always assumed he was repsonsive to TTM requests, was this not the case? Was he a notorious non-signer when he was alive?
