TTM Tues! Private Signings! Plus Successes From The Stars Of Gremlins! Ghostbusters! Love Actually! And More!
Hey autograph collectors. Ugh. And I mean double ugh. What was once reserved for conventions is becoming somewhat of a trend with celebrities. private signings!! For a (somewhat large) fee you can now get your favorites autographs. Don’t get me wrong- it IS a way to obtain some autographs from hard-to-get celebs, and you can usually even send in items to be signed.
Here is the ugh.. 1) it’s expensive. I’m talking $125 for most and $800 for some like Sylvester Stallone. 2) Many celebs sign a contract with theses private signing companies which forbids them to sign TTM which sucks for us collectors. Conventions aside, I don’t like the idea of money being made off of autographs. I have never (again, conventions aside) paid for an autograph. It’s just not for me.
And despite the surge of pay-for-a-graph, there are some awesome celebs signing for us fans, and this week is certainly no exception. So, get out your pens, write your letters, and get ready, because the stars are aligned for:
