Anyone into Signed Photos e.t.c.?, by mocksy on Dec 14, 2007 23:39:34 GMT 1, Just thought i would start this thread as its all quiet at the ghetto.
I have a collection of about 1000 signed photos, books and various other stuff which i have collected over the last few years from celebrities e.t.c. for my daughters.
Some things are better than others but just wanted to start a sort of trust fund up for them for when they get older, you never know what things are worth in a few years.
This is why i started collecting art as when im gone its all theirs.
Anyone got anything?

The last book i got signed was from Marco Pierre White out of Hells Kitchen when i was in Selfidges, London!
He looks a lot scarier in real life than on TV.

When I used to race in a partner series I grabbed his signature on an old suit of mine, will be keeping that to show my kids one day Going v off topic though - watch Piquet next yr, you'll be surprised (as long as Renault don't shove a banana up his exhaust!).

Went to see them in Cardiff when I was 14. Got there early and went around the stage door which was open cos it was a really hot day. Lead straight onto the back of the stage where they were rehearsing. All I can really remember was a load of whisky bottles and plastic cups on a table and Carol Cleveland in a bikini............

Anyone into Signed Photos e.t.c.?, by leehambly on Dec 15, 2007 0:58:03 GMT 1, got a signed Mohammed Ali polaroid, taken at the opening of a Toyota dealership in KSA back in the early 80's. We were the only europeans and the huge crowd, for some reason, seemed to think we must have been part of the show and pushed us to the front. the whole thing involved some banter, but to be fair I was too young to really understand what the hell was going on or remember it in any detail

Really dunno... its a dreadul photo to be fair, really hustled and in his face, taken slightly over one shoulder, from about a foot away, at a 45 degree angle and a bit blurred (but it is totally obviously him)... classy guy, he signed it on the back rather than the front cos he didnt want to ruin the photo! Don't think it will ever get sold and in a few decades the polaroid image will be cack, so it will just be a weird bit of photo stock with some guys autograph on, so not even an heirloom... but a very cool "thing".

Definitely cool, maybe not worth much to many - but to you a million!

Meeting someone like that, there is the inevtable feeling that no meeting with any individual will ever quite live up to that one.. everything is downhill after that... and I don't even remember mine!!!
I did nearly get run over by Beckham once though, not quite the same league... spent the rest of the day ruing the fact I didnt just dive under the front of his BMW range rover thingy... I'd be able to buy originals now!

Anyone into Signed Photos e.t.c.?, by Hugs on Dec 15, 2007 2:10:40 GMT 1, Know what you mean,it was a book signing that i went to and i was about 3 in the que.
A old lady in a wheelchair was at the front and she started crying when she went in,Ali got up and came round to her side of the table and knelt down and gave her a hug and a kiss,the whole place went quiet and then everyone was clapping hands and women were crying...cameras clicking left right & centre...surreal expierence.
I read that not long ago he broguht a section on NY to a standstill as he got of his car to go to function,the traffic stopped and everyone got out of their cars and started clapping and cheering....a true living legend IMo,one of the few people alive that you can say that about .
