AS the title really, has anybody got any signed dvds, pictures or other memorabilia?

[kahless]

Unfortunately not. 

[Dragonfire]

None for me either.

[Critter]

I had a book signed by the author once. He's an Australian author not really well known outside of Aus, but he's popular here. That's about it though.

[Dragonfire]

I do have a few books that are signed.  The bookstore got signed copies from the publisher.

Bunch of Discworld books where I queued up to meet Terry Pratchett. Forget how many now. Three, maybe four, plus paperbacks bought at the same time. I never took old books though. He would quite rightly pick on people who brought their collections! Lad in front of me had two carrier bags full and Pratchett called him a bastard! Then stood up and shouted to the queue behind us, to tell them there was a bastard holding them up!

A Dragonlance novel called Soulforge signed by Margaret Weis, which I bought direct from her website so she would sign it. She used to actively take part in forums and chatrooms and I spoke to her a couple of times. I did have a really nice email from her, but lost it due to a failed backup.

I met Darth Vader at a comic convention! Dave Prowse, really...  He signed a photograph and, this being way back, I asked him if there was ever going to be any sequels and he explained the three trilogy plan Lucas had. First time I'd ever heard that.

Couple of autographs from concerts too.

I have a few signed 8X10 photos... all of which were gifts or Prizes, I have...

- Gillian Anderson
- Robert Englund (in his Freddy makeup)
- Antone Di Leo (Day of the Dead)

Then I won this from Anchor Bay Home Entertainment...

I have nothing signed... and to be completely honest - I've never seen the appeal of it. Standing in line for hours just to get my artwork ruined by a sharpie? No thanks.

I know, I'm probably the weird one out on that...



but hey! It can't be that much worse than the guy above me re:music! 

[addicted2dvd]

if only weird was the worst thing I was described as!

I have hundreds of autographs of sports figures. Most are from going to their events or their practice sessions. We always go really early to get the best parking spot right where the athletes drive into the stadium. We party and as the athletes drive in most of them stop and sign for us. Its a lot of fun and is a tradition now for the gang.

I have quite a few books signed too. I have no idea where I got them from since most of my books I buy second hand. The only ones that might be worth something some day are the ones signed by the US Presidents...or the one signed by Stan Lee!

I remember seeing an advert in SFX or Starburst for someone selling a collection of Sir Terry's book, they stated that they were very rare copies as they were Unsigned by Terry Pratchett

I've got several signed photos, some from people I sent fan letters to several years ago.  Among the ones who replied to my letters with signed photos were Judith Light, Markie Post and some others I can't recall right now.  The prize of my autographed photos is one of my favorite actress, Jodie Foster.  I also used to go to comic book conventions and I have some autographs from those including Curt Swan, my all-time favorite comic book artist.  I also have some country music signatures.  One oddity was I ordered a Clint Black CD once from Amazon.com and when it arrived, it was an autographed copy.  I never realized Amazon ever had autographed CDs...

I've only ever gone out of my way to get something signed once. I went with some friends to see the original stage production of The Phantom of the Opera. One of my friends was a big fan of Michael Crawford and I knew that she would wait by the backstage doors to see him depart. Now it had been mentioned in the press that Sarah Brightman was leaving the show that week so whilst I was there I bought the CD of the show. After the show I waited with my friend and then got Michael Crawford, Sarah Brightman and Andrew Lloyd Webber to autograph the insert. But stupidly didn't get it dated by one of them as proof this was in her final week with the show.

Other signed items are books but they were all purchased as autographed copies.
