What would you like to tell us about yourself, your collecting, or business.

I have been collecting autographs for twenty years now. I have over 2,000 autographs in my collection. My collection has been on display at the local middle school, fair grounds, mall, VFW, American Legion, County Museum, and teen center. I have even had two newspaper articles done about my collection. My collection is based off many fields but my favorite and most extensive is my military autographs.
