Okay I am just wondering if this is the same Autograph Store that has been selling garbage for a long time and are now donating said garbage to charities for fundraising. If this is the same company how come someone hasn't put a stop to this because it's pure evil to keep selling crap to unsuspecting people that believe everything they purchase from a charity is going to be legit.

I am posting a link to their website for charity fundraising where they are bragging about how…

Please come out to see the Monster Mania convention this coming weekend at the Marriott Hunt Valley Marland. Some great guests there and I will be covering it ! Here is the link.

Kevin McCarthy from Invasion of the Body Snatchers has passed away! I interviewed him about 3 years ago. I also have many signed items he autographed for me! May he Rest In Peace! here is one link to his OBIT!

It's the one featured in Autograph Magazine months and months back.

I'm having financial hardships, and need to sell it.

Any questions on the item, email me.

It's not an album, but a picture sleeve.

Each signature can be seen clearly (aside from original drummer PETE BEST, who signed over a dark portion). You can see it if you tilt it right in the light, as it's a black sharpie.

Comes with: backstage pass from Ringo…

I've never been the biggest Morrissey fan. He's a bit to dark for my tastes, but he does have a few good songs. So did The Smiths.

When I was 19, I saw a crowd of a hundred fans surround his tour bus. He signed one album, and threw the thing about 100 feet, and walked into the hotel. It was bizarre.

Anyway, comedian/talk show host Chris Gethard was on Jimmy Fallons late show the other night, and he talked about how he showed up when Fallon had Morrissey on,…

Okay, so...that title might be a misleading, but it sounded catchy, didn't it?

Machete has come out, and it was as disappointing as I feared it would be. Great cast (gotta love Danny Trejo getting a lead part). The problem was--this worked as a funny, fake movie trailer in the movie Grindhouse. It doesn't work for almost two hours.

Anyway, I read a great story about Machete, the movie that's already grossed almost $30 million.

Danny Trejo, who has…

Some great guests will be there signing , and the people in charge running this show have a fantastic charity they are supporting as well! Have fun!

I have always enjoyed celebrity book signings. It is the simpliest and most guaranteed way to obtain an autograph. In the real world of collecting autographs, there isn't often much that is a sure thing, but attending a celeb's book signing is as close as it is ever going to get. In this world we live in of fans wanting autographs, very tough economics, and the cancer of fake signatures over taking collectability, I simply cannot understand why a celebrity will not allow one item of…

I will confine my frustration to just Rock and Roll autographs since that is my area of what I collect. I am so fed up with what seems to be every gallery I walk into, every internet website I visit, and the increasing amount of horror stories regarding the signed garbage that is currently in circulation for sale. From those 9 Led Zeppelin signed LP's I saw last year in Las Vegas to the current conversation on another blog here regarding The Rolling Stones fake autographs and at every corner…

Well, last week I posted multiple requests for a full refund on all of my de-authenticated purchases, potentially alerting more than 1000 ARA "fans" on Facebook as to what kind of company they were tracking or

"liked".

That site has totally been shut down. Huh. Also, it is impossible to post any comment to "YouTube" ARA or Jerry Galdstone postings.

Now, some of you younger readers who have seen the film, "The Warriors" on video or (worse) edited on television, probably watch that film and wonder where all the violence is and what really is the big deal. Compared to the real gangs of today, the gangs in the film look more like a Mad Hatter tea party than gangs we see on the nightly news. However, for us older readers, we can testify that when the 1979 film was released, it caused fights in the theaters, gang activity, and a media that…

I purchased a Rat Pack photo from her 10 years ago; signed by all 5. I proudly displayed it on the wall in my office. Recently I decided to get it authenticated. I brought it to JSA and they said it was fraudulent. She offered to take it back on consignment but refused to refund me the original purchase price of $ 2300.00; as she does not recognize JSA or PSA as authorities. She said I should send it to Col. Myron Ross who she purchased the piece from for authentication. I was…

Tom Dreesen is one of the most under-rated comedians of all-time. He and I have stayed in touch after I interviewed him for Autograph Magazine, and I feel blessed to have heard so many great stories from him over the years.…
