Collecting Beatles Memorabilia!

Beatlemaniac:
...i'm waiting to hear from Frank.
Not ME right ((((Jo))))??? Hey, way to go on "winning" that! I'm actually more curious as to what the thing is... not sure if I'd seen that before. Also, we were chatting about the RareBeatles website and you'd reminded me of those books published years ago, which were all about collecting Fab memorabilia and the values. I'm guessing you have at least one of those. I wonder if they still update them.
Beatlemaniac:
i know sometimes people need money...but it saddens me that they have to go to the extreme of selling something which was personally addressed to them....
It's a long shot Jo I know, but perhaps this person got Paul to sign 2 items. I had 2 items autographed by a famous TV actress and auctioned one of them off, while saving the other.
...no this time (((mark)))...i was waiting to hear from frank caiazzo! ...and yes mark...i do have those books...but mine are old...must pick up a newer version...it's by perry cox (another Beatles autograph authenticator) oh and i hear what you're saying about Paul autographing more than one item, so the person decided to sell one. well in any event this is the auction where i picked up my latest Paul treasure. http://www.rrauction.com/bidtracker_detail.cfm?IN=654

Thanks Jo... now I am kinda remembering that... but I had only seen a promotional piece, not the actual book, back in the 1980's sometime.

Thanks for the info (((mark))).... ...i'll let you know the date-range of the autograph after frank sends me my paperwork... ...it's a full signature..(.as opposed to what he's doing now)...so the autograph is not current..so i'm happy about that. i really wanted another george.. .but lately his autographs are getting more and more expensive....i guess i should be happy for the ones i already have of him.

Very cool... guard and insure them all! The loopy "P" seems a bit rare but I have seen Paul's sig a number of times that way. I've mentioned it before, that I was once 20 feet away from George requesting through some guy if George would please sign my CD of "Cloud Nine." All I got was a big fat "NO." I was able to snap a pic of he and Jeff Lynne though!

OMG....where was I when you said this???? ....WOW I would've wanted to be in your shoes when you saw George and Jeff! ...sorry he didn't sign your CD though, ...he must've had a hard day...but glad you got a photo. i have a few others where he looped the P... besides THIS ONE i have THIS ONE ...although it's not looped as much. AND THIS ONE ...although it's a bit different. AND THIS ONE...and yet different AND then when I met Paul at a BookSigning in NYC in 2005...(although the signature is not as full as the others.) THIS ONE actually they all have some sort of loop...but are different.

Wow Jo, great examples of the loop style... thanks for posting those. Perhaps when he was rushing to sign that would invariably occur? Back when George was doing his promotions for "Cloud 9" a few of us learnt of the location for George's "Rockline" interview. Unfortunately a papp had been persuing him relentlessly and it made him very upset. I have a cassette of the entire interview and you can just tell George is not a happy camper. It amazes me to think I was just outside of the building whilst the interview was taking place! There was only a handful of faithful fans but George just didn't feel like dealing with us. They faked us out on exiting the location and he and Jeff sped off. A real shame but I don't blame him. It was great just to see him up close.

...thank you for wondering about it! ...i just love posting my stuff! it's ashame about those damn paps...and i'm certain it's very aggraving for the star....i know they're expected to be in the limelight...but come'on now...give them breathing room. ....well like i said, i'm just happy that YOU WERE ABLE TO SEE GEORGE AND JEFF!!! ...i'm very happy about that and also the fact your snapped a photo. ...hey do you have it with you????...can you show us a copy?? with respect to my stuff...I tried to get the insurance under my house insurance...but they said they needed to get an expert????.. .needed an inventory of everything, etc????.. ..they said it would be costly...so right now i have them displayed on my wall in my Beatles memorabilia room..(which is getting overcrowded) ....and i have a house alarm system which is monitored 24/7. ....but you could imagine the hysterics i was in when my basement got flooded last year.. ..but only minimal damage...which i'm grateful for! ...now everything is about 2 feet from the bottom of the floor.

With a near catastophe, yes, I understand. Thank goodness it wasn't a worse situation... though bad enough I am sure. I imagine insuring signatures is a weird thing too but still... Yes Jo, I do not currently have that particular photo scanned but I'll find it and post here soon. It's not that great but it was all I could do... and I had to take it papp style... you had to be there to understand... a bit of Hard Days Night you see.
-
(((mark)))...i have all my COAs and price-ranges/values...just gotta figure where i can go to insure them! ...and i understand completely about trying to take pics...(i'm so bad at it??? )...so don't worry if it didn't come out good...i'd still love to see it!!! hope everyone has a Beatleful day ...and FABulous weekend. Keep on collecting!
-
still awaiting my stuff. ..i can't wait! ..frank told me my COA is in the mail!...i wonder what he valued it at???? ...in the meantime i was at this store yesterday and saw Beatles thermal shirts!!!.. .they're grey with the Beatles heads on top and underneath it says, A Hard Days Night! ...i couldn't resist the price???...they were only $5.95 each so i bought the 3 that were left! ...it's ok cuz i can wear them during the cool autumn days or in the wintertime under my jacket. so what kind of Beatles stuff do you collect?
-
Wow, another autograph (((Jo)) thats great. . The only thing I've gotten recently is a stress fracture on my wrist by putting up fence post. Im in as cast right now so its a liitle hard to type. I do have my eye on another gold disk. Im thinking about it. Everybody had a great fab day.
-
yeah i know thomas... ops: ..i was envious of steve's new addition, that i couldn't help myself! lol ...so what better way to feed my desire than obtaining another Paul autograph! aww man, what a bummer...sorry about the wrist (((thomas)))...i hope it heals real soon. oh and you with your gold discs!!.. .good for you!!!. ..i wish you luck if you decide to go for it! ...one day i'll try bidding on one of them.

Yer well done Jo and Happy Collecting to you all Jo, I sent a scan to Frank last week and got a reply from one of his assisants saying he is involved in some other projects and has suppended his service for a while, Do you know whats going on? I have just picked up another signed item, but I need Frank to look at it and if this one is real is the Bargain of my life, I think it real as I would not have bought it, it was to good to turn down
