JOHN CRAWFORD JUST CALLED ME!!!!!!!!!

I just got the COOLEST phone call As most of you know, I collect autographs. On January the 10th I sent a autograph request to a famous actor of the 40s-80s named John Crawford.

He just called me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He thanked me for the sweet letter and I was unbelievable in shock, I guess I said Oh my goodness 10 times. He also wanted to apologize for just getting to my letter and thathe was sending me 2 signed index cards and a signed Star Trek picture of him. I'm flying on Cloud 9 right now. He's been in all the great movies of the mid-60s to 70s.

I'm sitting down right now to send him a thank you card for the phone call!!!
