Behind-the-Scenes Autograph Collecting

I finally had an opportunity to watch the Light & Magic documentary about Industrial Light & Magic on Disney+ on Saturday.  I highly recommend it to anyone interested in the history of film.

While watching the documentary, I began to reflect on the many amazing people who are involved in the art of filmmaking.  Many of those people are famous.  Many are not.  How common is it for autograph collectors to not only collect the autographs of their favorite actors and actresses, but also the autographs of the behind-the-scenes creators as well?

A Phil Tippett autograph would be a wonderful addition to the autograph collection of any Star Wars fan.

I believe that this type of thorough autograph collecting may also be applied to sports autograph collecting.  Not only is it possible for autograph collectors to collect the autographs of their favorite athletes, but also the autographs of others who are involved in the inner workings of their favorite sports teams as well.

Do you collect behind-the-scenes autographs?  If so, whose autographs have you collected?

I agree with Steve on the Ruth Gehrig ball.  Unless it were a 1927 Yankees team ball, that might be a different story.

On the topic of Disney, seems like a good place to find enthusiasm for behind-the-scenes collecting. Not just animators, but notably theme park imagineers.

I agree with Steve and Terrier about the Lou Gehrig and Babe Ruth autographed baseball.  I agree with Josh about the Carrie Fisher, Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill and James Earl Jones autographed Star Wars movie poster, although I consider Anthony Daniels and Peter Mayhew to be main characters.

I completely agree, Rich.
