I have all 4 autograph's on one page !! My husband bought it for me several years ago for Christmas. It came with a Certificate of Authenticity, plus the affidavit from the lady who sold it. Her uncle worked at a theater they played and he got them back in 1964. .
WOW beatlemama that is SOME GIFT!!! ...do you have a picture???? cuz i'm sure we would ALL love to see it! ...please post it if you can.
Beatlemama:
I have an entire Beatles corner in my basement with lots of pictures and posters, a replica Paul bass, a Beatles neon light. I have an autographed picture (Pete Best) of them playing the Cavern Club and have all my old 45's mounted in a display case. One of them is titled "Eight Days a Week" from the soon to be released motion picture "Eight Arms to Hold You" which was actually "Help". I have lots of Beatles t-shirts, figures, coffee mugs, mouse pads, calendars, puzzles, purses etc. I used to have the Beatles dolls with rooted hair, bought them back in 1964 or 65 when they first came out. Don't know what happened to them but I sure wish I had them now.
you have an awesome collection beatlemama! i too have a beatles room in my basement! ...i posted many pictures way back! ..doesn't going down there brighten up your day when you're feeling blue? ...and i can NEVER get enough of Beatles stuff!!!...everytime i see something...I WANT IT!!!
I'll try to post a picture of my Beatle stuff, if I can figure out how to do it. I'm like you, have a big problem resisting anything Beatles !! And my sister-in-law is the same way so we're always finding stuff for each other too

I'm trying to post pictures of my autographs, hope it works. Should be a close up of all 4 autographs on one page and then a shot of the display my husband made for them http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x11/beatlemama36/115_1516.jpg http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x11/beatlemama36/115_1515.jpg

And now here are some of my Beatle corner. I have a Hofner bass replica and my husband recently retored a set of 1965 Ludwig drums, just like Ringo's. He's a drummer and replaced his last set of electronic drums with the old Ludwigs http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x11/beatlemama36/115_1517.jpg http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x11/beatlemama36/115_1519.jpg http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x11/beatlemama36/115_1520.jpg http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x11/beatlemama36/115_1521.jpg http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x11/beatlemama36/115_1523.jpg

WOW Stunning collection, thoses walls are amazing
-
Wow. Who wants to go to Beatlemama's house and play in the basement??!!! I do!! ROADTRIP! Who's with me? Very impressive.
-
WOW Beatlemama.. .you have an AWESOME Beatles collection! ...i particularly like the drum set, hofner guitar on the wall and that awesome Beatles neon light! ...did you have that custom made???? ...btw your husband made an awesome set up for your autographs! ...I LOVE YOUR WHOLE COLLECTION!!!!
-
Beatlemama that is an awesome collection! Did you mount all of those 45's yourself or have it professionally done? I have several 45's that were given to me by my Mom and I would like to mount them, but haven't quite figured out how I want to do it. I thought about mounting each one separately but I really like how you have them together with the other stuff. It looks sweet!
-
Thanks all !! I'm very proud of my Beatles collection and love adding to it. The neon was a gift from some dear friends on my 50th birthday. And yes I mounted the 45's myself. They are all pretty scratched up and not in good shape at all so I decided to mount them like that to cover up the damage.. I have a Beatles music book from the White Album and used a page from that for the background. Added some cards from my collection and that was it. We have guitars and basses hung all over the basement, hubby is a musician (hobby only, not professional) but we thought the Hoffner bass should be displayed in the Beatle corner. Near the drums is a stand-up of them that I ordered many years ago. Our basement is a fun party place, we also have a pool table, pinball machine, slot machine and a big bar.

Thanks Judy! ...and YES it is FUN collecting BEATLES BEALTES and more BEATLES!!! ...i absolutely have no more room in my Beatles room ... that I started moving in to the other side of the wall going towards the computer room. ...that's where i currently have my Beatles jukebox, along with Paul's jacket. ..once i fix up the area (with the new autographs i recently acquired) i must take a picture!!...!!! ...soon there will be no more computer room cuz i would have moved into it with more Beatles memorabilia! ...come to think ot it, it sounds like a plan!

Judy...it's not a Beatles jukebox per se....it's a Rowe AMI jukebox which has a selection of 100 Beatles 45's and solo-Beatles 45s. ...but what's stopping me from customizing it, right??? ...

It's great you have that many 45's ! Most of mine didn't make it, I gave many of them away when I briefly "outgrew" the Beatles, that was a long time ago.. As you can see, I came back to my senses.

Hi Judy ...yeah i see you have a cool collection in one of the frames on the wall! ...with respect to my collection of 45s...i didn't start collecting Beatles 45s until about 4 years ago...and then two years ago i got the jukebox at a garage sale upstate!...what an awesome find that was! ...i had alot of 45s, but not enough to fill up the jukebox of 100 records! ...so i started buying more to fill it up!...right now i have 58 Beatles, 18 Paul, 10 John, 7 George/2 Traveling Wilburys, and 5 Ringo in my jukebox ...i still have more 45s, but they 're either scratched or duplicates!...i even have some "colored" 45s, and a few EPs in my jukebox....and i'm certain a few of the records in my jukebox are valuable cuz they are different labels! ...i must check it out one day! ...i also have a few other Beatles 45s, but to decide which one to take out and which one to replace it with...well, it's really hard to decide! ...so i haven't done it yet! and yes, collecting Beatles memorabilia is a favorite past-time for me, as it is for others!! ....and i'm happy you also decided to do such!!!...cuz you really do have an AWESOME collection! ... i just LOVE looking at other Beatles fans memorabilia.

Hello Everybody, Just got back from Walt Disney World, there is a shop in downtown Disney called Starabilias, I got a gold plated 45 of John's #9 Dream. Also framed with it, is a series of John Lennon stamps. It really nice. I had them ship it home, and hopefully it will arrive soon. I also picked up a copy of the Beatles "Love" on vinyl at the Virgin Megastore down there, plus Paul's new CD. Hope everyone is doing fine.
-

Hi ((Jo)) yes we all had a great time, it was great fun, yes, the #9 dream has a series of stamps with it, I not sure from what country,but I will check when it arrives,(hopfully soon). I have not got the Wilbury's yet, but will soon. Hope you and your family are doing good. One funny thing was I wore my McCartney US tour tee shirt down there and people kept commenting how they like the shirt.
