Hockey Memorabilia

A hockey puck from the overtime gold-medal game between the U.S. and Canada at the Vancouver Olympics, now belongs to a cat in Ohio. He paid $13,088 for it.

Sidney Crosby's jersey, from a game Team Canada had against Switzerland, went for a bit more -- $35,034.

Even trays were big sellers. One that the medals were presented to the gold-medal winning women's hockey team, went for just under five grand.

The Vancouver Olympic Organization Committee…

San Diego Autograph Things -- Black Eyed Peas and David Wells

The Black Eyed Peas played the Sports Arena on Saturday night. The big story with them and San Diego is one time at a Street Scene festival, she wet her pants. Security wouldn't let her into a certain area because she didn't have her backstage pass, and I guess, that was the area with the bathrooms (you can Google and find the concert photos -- they're hysterical).

I'm not the biggest fan of the band, and wasn't at the show. But apparently, an autograph was given out. The…

RADM. Eugene B. Fluckey, Medal of Honor autograph

This is some of the work I do to help preserve our history of American Valor. I create these posters and then humbly ask the recipient to sign them for me.

Rear Admiral Eugene "Lucky" Fluckley what an amazing story! Commander of the U.S.S Barb, a submarine in WWII, and the only sub ever to sink a train. One of the highest decorated US Servicemen, I really wanted to do his poster justice. In terms of valor,…

PFC Jacklyn H. Lucas, USMCR Medal of Honor autograph

This is some of the work I do to help preserve our history of American Valor. I create these posters and then humbly ask the recipient to sign them for me. Jack was the 1st MOH Recipient I asked for an autograph and the very nice letter he sent me back with the photo gave me the "greenlight" so to speak to create more posters of these great men. I was very nervous at first doing this, and why not, here is a Marine Corps legend and I a mere Marine was going to…

"RETIRED" ROCK and ROLLER'S: Obtaining their signatures - anyone got a need or a story?

There are those Rock and Rollers that for all intended purposes, are all but "retired". Christine McVie comes to mind for me, as I have a 1990 Fleetwood Mac tour book that has all 5 of the other band members signatures from that tour, but for over 15 years I have been needing her to complete it. Word has it she is living the quiet retired life in jolly 'ol England. Thus, my tour book remains unsigned by her.

John Deacon of Queen is another on my list of retired musicians.…

Do You Sign Autographs at a Hit-and-Run? (Dwight Gooden, of course)

Retired Mets pitcher Dwight Gooden was always getting into trouble. I'd list the things he did, but it would be pages and pages long.

I'll give you the latest, though.

The 45-year-old was driving under the influence of drugs with his 5-year-old child in the car.

And what time do you think it was? Well, it was 9:00 a.m., the time when most of us our doing the liquid drugs they serve up at Starbucks.

He was not only on drugs, but…

R.I.P Robert Culp

Robert Culp passed away the other day at the age of 79.

I interviewed Robert in 2008 at the Chiller convention in New Jersey. He was nice to me but showed some signs of confusion in his answers to my questions. I have quite a few signed items he autographed for me there!

Here is one of his OBITS.

HARRISON FORD...just sent me another autograph....

Well, I simply can't believe my luck. After receiving the signed copy of my Official Indiana Jones Magazine article f( the magazine article featured my Indiana Jones Collection and an Interview with me ) from Harrison, I wrote him again thanking him for his gift to me. I also asked if I could have an 8x10 signed to me since the Magazine was going to be placed away in my safe. I knew that it was a long-shot and that I was probably asking for too much. However, The Indiana Jones and Autograph…

CLASSIC ROCK BANDS are hitting the road this summer!!

Though it is not easy, and in fact it can be almost immpossible, obtaining signatures from many of the classic rock bands and artists is a possibility as many are hitting the road this summer: U2, Eagles, Paul McCartney, Stephen Sills (and CS&N), Tom Petty, Sting, and many others are out on tour. Difficult??......of course it is. However, if they are on the road, then that is where it best can happen. Happy Autographing!

Late Night Autographs -- Letterman, Conan, Aniston

I was catching up on the TMZs I had recorded on my DVR, and I saw that Jennifer Aniston was signing lots and lots of autographs before going into Lettermans show. This has become a place where lots of people now go to wait for the celebs.

I was in New York and saw hundreds waiting to meet Will Smith (he only signed a couple before going in).

It's smart of them to sign, because the cameras are watching. Aniston was signing photos, DVDs, and any item put in front…

Corey Haim Autographs

I was interviewed on a radio station last night talking about the death of Corey Haim. The subject went into childhood actors, and I mentioned the VH1 list of 100 Greatest Childhood Stars, and Corey was #26. The list is a compilation of a lot of trainwrecks -- either dead or drug problems, etc.

Anyway, I just now thought about the time the cast of Lost Boys (about 6 months ago), came to town to sign autographs. It wasn't Corey Feldman and Keifer Sutherland, or even Jason…

R.I.P to Lost Boys actor Cory Haim

The actor from comedy horror film The Lost Boys, and other films, Cory Haim, has passed on , as the report says, from an overdose of drugs.

I never got to meet this young man, but he did attend a few genre conventions on the West Coast.

He will will be missed, what a shame.

Helen Mirren Rips an Autographed Photo Up and Guess What Sold for $4,500

I couldn't believe when I was switching channels, and caught the end of The O'Reily Factor, hearing that he sold an autographed poster from him and Glenn Beck, for $4,500. Wow. Seriously, that's probably worth 45 cents. And, I'm not just saying that because I don't agree with their politics.

On TMZ, the show to watch for autograph thingies...the gorgeous Helen Mirren, who was nominated for The Last Station (her performance was great, the movie just average). She was signing…

What does a CASINO and a STATE/COUNTY FAIR have in common? Think "AUTOGRAPHS"......

Yes indeed you can feel it in the air. Winter is on its way out and spring is upon us. With spring about to be here and summer soon to follow, we get thick into the concert touring season. Increasingly, two of the BEST places that I have found to nab musical autographs is at both Casino's and State or County Fair's. Many artists take part in pre concert or post concert signings. Also, because of the limited size of these events, access to the tour bus area is much more reasonable. My biggest…

Muhammid Ali & Tim Tebow...Who Charges More?

Living in San Diego, I hear more Padres news than I care to. But out in Peoria, Arizona for the pre-season, the Padres were greeted by boxing legend Muhammad Ali. Tony Gwynn Jr, who has met some big names, seemed thrilled, saying "It's the first time I've ever been star-struck."

Only a few players got autographs of the living legend.

Across the U.S. in Jacksonville, Florida, Tim Tebow, who created a bit of controversy with his Super Bowl commercial, isn't even expected to go…
