I had the honor of meeting Henry Winkler back in around 2010/2011 when he was at a restaurant called the Chatterbox in NJ doing a charity signing and stayed well past his agreed upon time due to his line. CGC wasn't there that day and my mother got the autograph for the trip as he was one of her childhood crushes.
He is one of the humblest guys around my brother has severe autism and nearly nonverbal and let out a outburst in line. Henry peered around the corner and smiled seeing he was wearing headphones and made it a point ever so often to pop back around to assure he wasn't going to stop even though he was past the time.
Upon meeting him he asked if he was verbal and for his name and talked to him as if he were a regular person and my brother said Fonzie which is very rare for him to speak.
Flash forward to 2019, Dan was at a convention where Henry Winkler was present. I sent in two books this Mad Magazine and a Muppet Magazine. He happily signed both and talked to Dan about pleasant memories working with the Muppets and commented that he doesn't get to sign either too often.
At the time of this writing, there are only two signature series copies of the Muppet Magazine signed by Winkler and I own both copies.
Signed by Henry Winkler on 5/17/19 & graded on 6/26/19.

Signed and Sketch By: Joe Staton on 9/4/16 Baltimore Comic Con Scooby Doo Reading Mad Magazine Infinity Cover. This was the book that started it all!
My idea many years ago was to have Scooby Doo reading a Mad Magazine. Dan Partouche had the idea of making it an infinity cover and talked to Joe about it who loved the idea. After seeing the finished product, I loved it so much that I got Joe Staton over the span of many years to do each of the gang to do on. Original ID #1424159003
Signed & Sketch by Joe Staton on 9/4/16 & Signed & "Scooby Doo!" By Frank Welker on 2/29/20. This was before the world would shut down so I was fortunate to get the Frank Welker signature. I have a few Frank Welker signed books, I just need to meet him in person one day.
