Anyone collect autographs?

• Ytowngirlinfla

  

  I really like to do this as a hobby and since I'm trying to save money by not going out much or drinking on the weekends I was thinking about starting up again. Just curious who on the huddle does this and if they do, which websites etc do you use.
  
  I was just about to sign up for www.startiger.com
  I used one a few years ago that was all sports. It was really good.
  
  My best autograph has to be John Wooden on a Floor Board.
  
  He also sent a bunch of other stuff signed. All within a week and a half from sending it to him.

  I understand why people do it, and my dad has quite the collection.
  
  But personally I don't get it.

  Used to do it quite extensively, but stopped around the time I entered high school. Generally, I just wrote to players in care of their team's stadium/arena.
  
  My prize piece through the mail is (was?) probably a Tiger Woods signed Sports Illustrated.

  I collect NASCAR autographs. Got quite a few of them. Richard Petty has to be my favorite one. Mine are all 'personally' collected though. I don't mail in for them or anything like that.

  I've got some good ones. Haven't gotten anything lately though that's been really noteworthy, although my sister got an autographed Nick Mangold pic from his Buckeye days...

  My fathers has the most signed shit I have ever seen in one house...His basement is completely done in OSU. His prized auto graph IMO is a picture in Black and White of Bo and Woody.

  I still sign'em, but they're not worth much.

  Last week I sold an autograph of Jack Dempsey on eBay. It was a menu from Dempsey's restaurant in New York. My parents and I went there in 1962. The autograph is addressed to my father who passed away a few months ago. He was always a big Dempsey fan. The thing I remember most about that evening was shaking hands with Dempsey. Those were the biggest hands I have ever seen. My hand got lost in his. Dempsey was very nice to us. He was a real gentleman. And he was wearing a tuxedo so he looked really sharp. That was a night I will never forget.

  Some people may ask why you had him sign a sword...but it was probably all you had...
  
  And you're not gonna NOT get Randy Jackson's autograph

  I did it quite a bit when I was younger. Had some doozies. All were obtained by me.
  
  I sold a bunch of them when I went to college, though. Kinda wish I'd saved them now.
  
  A few prizes:
  
  Barry Bonds autograph on a plane ticket (met him in an airport)
  
  John Glenn on a glossy.
  
  Sandy Alomar, Jr. on a card (actually got to sit down and have lunch with him at Applebee's when I was about 16).
  
  Kenny Lofton on a helmet, hat, and glossy.
  
  Carlos Martinez the day he hit a homer off Jose Canseco's head on a ball.
  
  Ramon Martinez (Pedro's older brother) on a ball.
  
  The only ones I didn't sell I think were a couple of the Lofton ones.
