Hi. My names Pat and I'm really here on behalf of my son. He's an avid autograph collector and I do what I can to help. Since we live in th emiddle of no where (relatively speaking) we don't get much chance to meet anyone F2F so he prefers to write. Not had much luck so far and have had to resort to ebay.
So his main areas of interest are F1 (particularly Red Bull), Liverpool FC, music and British TV stars.
Cheers

Hello - My name is Adrian, I've been ttming for about 4 years now. I collect mainly sports graphs, the main ones being Boxers - which I'm sure you can guess from my profile photo and signature, Rugby Union players, Cricket players and the odd football graph here and their.
I only send a few out a month at most, this is mainly due to lack of time with work and family commitments etc. I always post my successes to the group and enjoy being a member of this forum. I accept I need to be more pro-active in replying to other members successes.
Thank You
Adrian.

Hi im Elaine and used to collect autographs in person at football, speedway, cricket and wrestling. Used to take my own photos and then get them signed.
Since i started collecting tv stars, i have bought mainly off ebay. At the moment, i am trying to get signed photos of members of The Bill and other programmes i.e casualty and holby city.

Hi all,I'm Rob and I've been on the group for quite a while now and collect football autographs,mainly trying to get 1970s football cards signed.
We've got some great members on the forum,and the more involved people get in the group,the more help you'll get from the regular members,as we've all helped each other in the past with getting autographs.
I look forward to hearing from our newer members.

Hi again - I did introduce myself ages ago, but I haven't been collecting many autographs lately so I'd gone very quiet. But thought I'd better re-introduce myself before Daz sweeps me out the door in his spring-clean!
I'm Caroline. I used to do TTM but haven't done so for a couple of years - keep meaning to get back into it though. I do manage to get to the odd IP signing - the last one being a Doctor Who convention in February. Doctor Who and horror writers are my passion! 🙂
Hope you'll be happy to keep me in the group, Daz, even though I haven't been here for ages and haven't contributed much. I keep thinking, when I get back into auto collecting again, this will be a good place to be. (work, family and health issues are what's keeping me from my hobby at the mo I'm afraid :-()

Hi i am Sy and although my main passion is Chelsea football programmes which some were autographed which got me interested in autograhs and i was introduced to autographs by mail just over a year ago and now have over 1000 autographs through the help of this group ,i collect Chelsea ,Glasgow Rangers ,Scotland autographs,this is great for me having collected programmes for years my collection was becoming stale having collected all Chelsea home programmes from 1959 to 1992 and nearly all aways for the same period i needed some other avenue to enhance my collection and found this group but without commenting and being involved i would not have got the help that is available for regulars .I also run my own group for football fans but also had advise from great members on this as well.
SO IT IS WORTH GETTING INVOLVED HERE.

Welcome all.
#11 - Nice to hear from you Caroline. I remember you had long term health issues. I hope 2011 is a better year for you. I still half heartedly collect Who sigs, but love watching the show just as much. Not long now.

"Nice to hear from you Caroline. I remember you had long term health issues. I hope 2011 is a better year for you."
Hi again Nigel. Yep, long term and continually worsening, but you get used to living with these things.
"I still half heartedly collect Who sigs, but love watching the show just as much. Not long now."
Same here. Matt Smith has to be one of the best Docs ever IMHO. I guess I really ought to try for his auto. Does he tend to sign TTM?

Hi, im Sean. Been a collector for nearly 10 years. I mainly collect vintage film stars, two of my prized items are a very rare Cary Grant autograph and a nice typed letter on headed stationery by Stan Laurel, with a signature at the bottom. Of course the other half of the duo would be great, but prices are astronomical and fakes a real problem!
I also collect British tv and film stars, my most recent items are a Clive Dunn and Bill Pertwee signed photo and Chris Barrie from Red Dwarf.
Nice to join a group with like minded people!
