Autograph Case Stolen At Hh Con... - andrew santagato - 06-23-2008
Well, what can I say? Aaron Nathan and the rest of the HH crew put on a GREAT show for us 'DOTD' 'AWIL' and 'CREEPSHOW' fans this past weekend. Hung out at the Monroeville Mall with my family and Rich (Dahone) and his family. Got to meet John Amplas (Martin, Nate from 'Creepshow' etc.) and Darryl Ferucci ('Fluffy'). Hung out and chatted with Nicotero. Savini was actually in a great mood this weekend as well.It figures that right at the end of the weekend, this s#it happens. Rich and myself were getting ready to head out to the Airport, where the gang in 'DOTD' land in the film to re-fuel, and we see the 'Airport' zombie. We were also going to check out the house that Billy lived in from 'CREEPSHOW', which is like a 3 minute walk from the airport.Anyway, we get there, get out of our vehicles, and I go to grab my camera, which is in my black leather bag, along with my Autograph case that contains some 70-75 autographs that I've attained since 1999. I realize that the case ain't there. It's then that I figure out that I put it down next to my van before we left while talking with Rich, because I was going to follow him there. I obviously forgot to pick it up and throw it in the van when we left which of course, is my fault. Rich quickly called a friend of ours who was a dealer at the Con. He ran down to the underground garage where I was parked and found the bag. It had been opened, and basically inside were my wife's sweater, and my sunglasses. The case was gone. My guts were just churning, let me tell ya. I don't usually get overly emotional, but I was just barely able to fight breaking down. So I sped back to the Con, and walked around, but of course, it was pretty much over, and there weren't many people left. I talked to Aaron about it, who was great, and he said that he would help spread the word that it was missing. I'm basically posting this to say that if ANYONE knows ANYTHING about it, or see's a bunch of autograph's on eBay that are personalized to 'Andrew', please shoot me a pm or an email. I honestly don't know what he/she would do with these, unless of course their name is Andrew. I NEVER take all of the auto's with me when heading out to a Con. I always empty the case out, and bring it to just put the auto's in that I get at the convention. I was so rushed Friday morning, that I just brought it with everything in it. Figures.If it's out there, and the guy/gal who has it is reading this, I implore you to give it back man. I don't want any trouble, and I'm not calling the cops or any of that bullsh#t, I just want it back. There's 9 years of autograph collecting in there. A lot of them are very personal and are pictures of myself with Warlock, Romero, David Emge, Nicotero, etc that have been personalized to myself, so they're useless to you.Word to the wise: Take the time to make sure that you don't bring really valuable stuff to Con's, 'cause if you forget it somewhere, or it get's taken, chances are it's gone. I REALLY hope that in this case, it's not so.-Andrew

I friggin feel for you dude. I would rather get punched in the neck then lose something like that.Why don't you post on the HH board that you lost it and offer a $100 reward. Then if they ship it don't give it to them.
Autograph Case Stolen At Hh Con... - monteburns - 06-24-2008
That is a lot of money in autographs to lose not to mention your time.At $20 bucks a signed photo it would be around $1500 which definitely sucks.You should offer a small reward and post a flyer at the next convention.You should definitely watch eBay for auctions on similar signed photos.I could only imagine how choked you are about this loss.
