I'm guessing there are some of you out there who remember the celebrity address lists that used to be put out by Jim Weaver, a Pittsburgh-based collector who spent several years updating and expanding his widely used and well-received lists. 

For those who knew Jim, or who simply knew of him through collecting circles, you may be surprised to hear that he passed away in January of this year. He was 66 and had had a few different health issues over the years. Heart problems eventually caught up with him.

Since then, not a day goes by that I don't see or hear something from the collecting world that reminds me of him, not the least of which is his own collection. As the executor of his estate, I have been tasked with finding a home for the "Jim Weaver collection," and I am looking to sell it. I've been in talks with some auction houses, including one that Jim used over the years, but I thought I'd start here as well and see if there were any collectors out there who might have an interest in buying the whole collection in one fell swoop. If you or someone you know would be interested in acquiring one of the finest autograph collections anywhere, get in touch.

I am not in the market to buy the finest of anything but wish you luck. It may help you sell it if you can highlight the best pieces and put a price on it.

Good thought - thanks Chad!

As a subscriber to Jim Weavers address lists from way back I am sorry to hear this news. Those lists actually got me into the hobby. Good luck with the autographs I can only imagine what treasures there are in the collection.

Did you have any luck?
