Two finds today. Would have been happy with the first book alone, but the second book blows it out of the water and was an amazing find for the price.

 

Agony & Ecstacy HB 1/1 2001 by Martin Johnson. £2.99

Bristol Rovers Greats PB 1990. £2

 

Quite remarkable little find for £2. This book has 63 signatures in it! I have taken pics, but will link to each pic to make things easy. The inside front covers and title page are all multi signed, and inside some player pages have been signed by the respective players. Also amazing, not one dedication, so I may try adding to these. Very happy. 🙂

Tell me about it Suzanne! I have found multi-signed books before, but this is the first time I have found one signed to this extent. The best thrill was flicking through, and seeing the player signed profile pages.

Signed cd for a £1 yesterday. The 2006 release from Gomez. Very mellow guitar pop from this great band who hail from Southport. At first I thought it was only signed by 4 of the 5, then realised the top right was two overlapping sigs.

Two great finds for a £1 each today - both HB 1/1 and like new. As soon as I saw them on the shelf together I knew they were signed even before opening them to check, as both had signed locally in recent years.

 

The Ricky Villa in particular is a sweet find. I already have Darren's book from attending that signing, but Ricky had two signings. The first was when he launched the Spurs Player By Player book which I attended, but I missed his bio signing as I was short on readies at the time.
