I always enjoyed visiting the Grauman's Chinese Theater in Hollywood, where I could see the actual handprints of the stars in cement. I decided to make my own collection, and maybe even make a book out of it. I started writing letters to celebrities, and most of them were nice enough to respond. Some sent simple hand outlines, while others sent more elaborate messages. It was a fun project. Overall, I managed to acquire more than 100 examples. I've enjoyed them for a long time. Now I want to break up this collection, so individual collectors can get something special from their favorite celebrity. SOURCE Who am I, you ask? My name is Michael Johnson, a former autograph collecting superfreak. I've always been interested in this fascinating hobby. My Mom even collected autographs in the 1950s, so I guess it's in my blood. In my heyday, I published my own newsletters, including "Autograph Research" and "Space Autograph News." I wrote articles for "Autograph Collector," "The Pen and Quill," and many other great publications. My most recent book is "Playing Cards Autographed By Magicians: A Collectors Guide" which you can get on Amazon. I think you'll like this special item! It's rare and unique. If you buy it, I'll ship it carefully with thick cardboard and a plastic cover to protect it. Thanks for taking a moment to read my listing.
