my sister (the paramedic one) said she got a call out to an old man. his house was full of autographed photo's and stuff, from people like ginger rogers, frank sinatra, all of them types. must have been worth a mint.

he told her he used to wait outside venues when he was about 8 years old and wait for them to come out.

Have a few bits and pieces, Fish CD, Type O Negative's Bloody Kisses album signed by all the band, Ian Rankin Novel and a picture of LFC at the World Club Championships in 1981 signed by 4 players.

Nothing worth bundles still nice to have all the same.

My bro, who is a pro musician, was working on one of the star wars movie soundtrack sessions, and george lucas was there. He dashed out, bought a star wars box set and had him sign it.

Got the England, Australian and Essex cricket teams' autographs in 1972.

Jeff Thomson's in 1975.

A lot of Tottenham Hotspurs' players during the 70s when it was acceptable to run onto the pitch after the game for autographs.

When I went to Barbados for a spot of cricket, I had a Gray Nichols (SL500 or something like that...four little scoops in the back?) and bumped into the West Indies team in transit. Called Joel Garner Colin Croft - he kept saying 'Naaat Crraaft' 'Naat Crraaft' - I was sooo stupid. Anyway, Garner Croft and all the team of that era on the back of the bat, along with Charlie Griffiths, Wes Hall, Garfield Sobers - and all the regular hangers on who used to trail around after me... Played against Desmond Haynes just as he was beginning his career too - another signatory.
I broke the bat some months later and just gave it away to one of the opposition - it didn't seem to mean much at the time (apart from how much a new one might cost an impoverished art student) but it did to the old boy I gave it to...
Got plenty of New Zealand / France team autographs on jerseys / ball etc etc - useful for the 'sporting moments' part of life.
I have been asked for my autograph three times. All by junior enthusiasts at rugby matches. Little do they know how unvaluable their inscriptions...

I've got a few things signed by singer songwriter Martin Joseph.

I had the autograph of astronaut James Irwin, he visited Airdrie Library, but I lost it.
