I used to have a signed Albert Square sign once before, but like a few things it got sold in the 2007 sale. I paid £36 for that one, and sold it on for over £100. This time round I paid £35. It has 40 signatures circa 2001 around the early days of the Slaters. I have identified most. Chuffed to have another one as I regretted selling the old sign. I would not mind a few more with different casts from over the years, but am in no rush.
Obvious highlights are the late Wendy Richard, an early Jessie Wallace signature complete with cat doodle, and Steve McFadden adding his character name which is very rare to see. It looks like Gavin Richards signed it twice.
