Agree. I definitely think it looks good. Congrats!

That was my thought too -- but for the price, I certainly can't complain. It was one of those no-brainer gambles like the Aldrin book I picked up last year. That Goodwill I bought this at seems to get shipments of books/a disproportionately-high number of signed books that came from the States. It would require a much larger topic to discuss (basically the ins-and-outs of thrift store warehouses and shipping patterns).

The other Goodwill I visit has, within the past couple years, been my greatest source of finds -- it's where I found the signed Farley/Spade, signed Thatcher and a signed Dryden, among many others.

Paul signed ONE autograph at his speaking engagement tonight at Yale, and it was for me!

Very cool. Congrats! I thought he was no longer signing autographs.

That's right, but he's human so I guess it depends on environment, his mood, how approachable you are etc. 

Can I ask what you guys do with these things?

Do they end up in a drawer or do you frame and display them?

I was first to the stage. He raised a finger and said,"one," looked me right in the eye (I'm still buzzing!), took it, signed it, handed it back, waved and walked off stage. When I turned around, there were a few dozen people holding Abbey Roads, White albums and RAMs. I think my choice of that Beatlemania-starting single really stood out. Nancy gave me a nice smile, too. And Al, I definitely will frame this.

That's awesome man, it would look great with a jet black mount and frame, all acid free of course :)
