Guitar picks

Didn't see another topic about this anywhere...so thought I would make one. As a music collector, I get some guitar picks in the mail from guitarists/bassists along with autographs. I don't have a whole lot because I don't request them (they are pretty much random)...they are just generous enough to put one or two picks in for me. :D Does anyone have any guitar picks they would like to share? So far I have:

3 Doors Down
Max Cavalera
Zakk Wylde x5
311
David Ellefson x3
Sammy Hagar
Michael Anthony
Eddie Trunk
Carlos Santana x2
Lynyrd Skynyrd
Ted Nugent

Bowling for soup sent me a few with their autograph :)
I played guitar until I was 12 so they're still nice to have, memories! :P

Like I said, when I write for a autograph I'll say something like " hey ______, if you have a extra guitar pic laying around I'd really love it if you'd throw me in a extra, Ill probibly never be lucky enough to catch one." And no- they don't always send one.

I've actually been thinking about sending picks to some of my favourite guitarists and asking them to initial them for me. I think it would be cool to have some signed picks.

I only have one from Tommy Farese from the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. I didn't ask for it or anything but, it's probably one of the most unique things in my collection.
