TTM Success - Debbie Harry

When I saw that lead singer of Blondie, Debbie Harry, was signing TTM, I wasn't sure what to send.  Obviously, I wanted to have her sign a checklist from 87 Topps to help fill out another page of celebrities.  I wanted to send something else, so I went with a New York theme, since Blondie is considered a New York band.  I was able to get the above 2008 Upper Deck Piece of History Statue of Liberty card out of my box.
The above 2020 Allen and Ginter Steinway Tower "Reach For The Sky" insert was another cool one to send out.  Also shown above is the 87 checklist that she signed.  It has no significance or tie to Harry or Blondie other than she was active in 87 and it will be another celebrity card for that album.

Harry (b. 1945) is a singer, songwriter and actress.  She has been with Blondie since their formation in 1974.  The band is known for hits such as Heart of Glass, Call Me, Rapture, Atomic and The Tide is High.  She also appeared in movies: Videodrome, Hairspray, Body Bags, Tales From the Darkside - The Movie and Elegy.

I mailed to Harry on January 23, 2023, and got the cards back on July 26, 2025, for a 915-day TAT.

Very cool that Harry signs for her fans. Grew up listening to her music. It would have been cool to have her sign a card where a player is using a phone... like Ripken's 1994 Collector's Choice card (in honor of Call Me).
