Do you have a handful of absolute favorite cards that you would REALLY love to have embellished with a T. Nielsen signature?
You don’t HAVE to go to an event and stand in long lines to have it done.
I’m happy to sign cards for all of you. There’s no need to email to ask for permission, or to find out where to send them. All you have to do is send your cards (please not more than 25, if you want double signatures, ONLY 12 cards) with a SASE (self addressed stamped envelope) to the address listed above.
I generally will send your cards back within a couple weeks upon arrival, and sometimes even quicker. By the way, one of my favorite morning routines is cupping my hands around a warm, foamy, double cappuccino while I’m planning my day. Or if I’m making my way through the mail at the end of the day, a glass of merlot is oh so nice. Both beverages have a way of making my signing hand smile! So, if you’d like to totally make my day, just add a little tip to your envelope and I’ll be smiling as much as you will when your saintly postman delivers your envelope full of hand-signed cards.
Because we still so frequently get emails asking how much it costs for a signature, and that the whole point of this page is to mitigate the volume of correspondence regarding card signatures, I am clarifying that I have no set signature rate. That being said, the current average “industry rates” amongst MTG artists are between 4 -5 dollars for single signatures and 8 – 10 dollars for double signatures. If someone is destitute and is still wanting to have a card signed I don’t like turning those people away. I very much like for people to be able to get their cards signed. That said, I also don’t appreciate those that take advantage of that generosity for their own gain.
The PWE (plain white envelope) method often works really well for international card shipments as it’s cost effective, does not require customs forms, and eliminates confusion with overseas addresses and postage. It’s a fairly robust method as well, I have yet to see any cards arrive to me mashed up or mangled using this approach. Simply arrange your cards into a binderpage of trading card sleeves and then fold the page over itself along its seams to fit the outer envelope.
