I find this is true. Any silver or bronze for sale?
I have been a collector my whole life, my first autograph came when I was about 8 years old.....I guess I weighed in at about 80 pounds then. Now in my mid 40's, I am about 265 lbs. So yeah, I would say I did a whole lot of growing as a collector.
Pete, that's a good one!!!
I started collecting in general from my earliest memories. I got into autographs in the early 70s quite by accident. I certainly have grown in knowledge and fundamentals since then. You learn more from your failures than your successes I believe. I have collected most of my life prior to the internet and that has been a great advantage. There were fewer places to get autographs so collections grew at a slower pace. Through the mail was primary way of collecting for young people with little money. Today with deep pockets someone can amass an impressive collection in a very short time. I have been trying to improve my collection over the years from just a sterile signature to letters and documents. I think these give a better sense of a person than a nicely place signature. I am in a minority it seems on that score. If I have a choice between a signature on an index card and the same signature with a greeting I always chose the latter.
Oh course! 5 Years ago I didn't know anything, now I could write a book on this hobby. I think I am fairly good at knowing the value/rarity/authenticity of about 50+ autos,
