*****YEAR IN REVIEW 2024: WHAT WERE YOUR TOP GETS? MISSES?*****

Wanted to start as always by thanking our founder  Steve Cyrkin, Admin for this wonderful site!

I'm up to 80 Friends here, and so appreciate everybody's contributions in this community to help build our collections in this Autograph hobby we all so love.

As 2024 comes to a close, it's time again for:

*****YEAR IN REVIEW 2024: WHAT WERE YOUR TOP GETS? MISSES?*****

If you all will kindly allow me to go first here's

*****MY GETS: (In no apparent order)

Alex Van Halen

Brain May (finally!)

Green Day

Coldplay

Bon Jovi

Alice Cooper (yet again!)

Bruce Dickinson

Peter Frampton (big thanks to Roger Epperson  roger epperson)

Foster The People (again), but thanks to  Steve81

*****MY MISSES:

None this year, our awesome community shared some incredible finds and I got all the ones that interested me!

I kept my promise to my wife and Jason H that I was pulling back on purchasing, as my autograph collection now completely fills the walls in my Music/Autograph room!

I always remain on the lookout for an Axl Rose or Elvis Presley :)

So...now it's your turn.... 2024: WHAT WERE YOUR TOP GETS? MISSES?

Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Holidays, Happy New Year...See you in 2025 !!!

Yony Mark Hi my friend, that is a NICE list of GETS. 

Glad you got so many nice autographs. I also did not get Alice In Chains Jerry Cantrell...while I said I didn't have any "misses" this year, I stood down on Jerry Cantrell as well as 

Dwight Yoakam and think in hindsight I should've pulled the trigger.

All the best Yony, and we'll see you in 2025.

I have plenty more, the damn leaf pop releases I go overboard! Got some other photos, comics, lps, cds, cards, books, etc. A lot of the same as others lists.

misses, not really sure if there is anything I regret passing on or missing the release. though the Bill Gates would be nice to see come back.

Oh that's a great list  DPsCactus12,

where did you get Linda Blair?...Man, I loved The Exorcist!

it was ebay. it's not exactly the one I want as it's a sticker but her cards (leaf, inkworks, cryptozoics) can go for a lot. I regret selling the 1 or 2 I pulled from Supernatural cases some years back (same with JDM, I had at least 3 of him before he was cast as Negan)

The Autographed sticker is still an amazing piece to have DPsCactus12 !

Here are my 2024 top picks.

Kurt Cobain signed 5 x 7 Type 1 Photo.

Alice In Chains poster signed by the original members. Circa 1991

Joaquin Phoenix signed Joker 11 x 17 photo.

Joaquin Phoenix signed index card when he was 10 years old. Signed Leaf Phoenix

Jay Z signed poster

J. Cole signed full name magazine.

Kendrick Lamar signed promotional photo. 

Cheers!

Wow J.Seah ! Would you share some background info on the history of where your Kurt originated from, how you got it, and perhaps even a photo of your Kurt piece? I'm a HUGE Nirvana fan. I met Dave Grohl for an in person autograph, and corresponded with Krist by mail to get his autograph...but no Kurt...yet!

This is most of my big hits for the year:

Alex Van Halen
Alice Cooper 
Art Spiegelman
Bill Clinton
Billie Eilish
Billy Dee Williams

Carrie Fisher

Charlie Duke

Chris Pine
Christopher Nolan
Coldplay

David Duchovny

Dolly Parton

Don Henley
Edward Teller

Eminem

Gene Cernan

Ice Cube
Jason Isbell
Jennifer Aniston
Josh Brolin
Judas Priest signed by Halford, Downing, Tipton & Hill
Keanu Reeves
Kevin Costner
Lenny Kravitz
Maya Hawke
Michael Caine
Michael McDonald
Michael Richards
Michelle Obama
Neil Gaiman

Richard Dawkins

Robert Downey Jr.

Salman Rushdie
Taylor Swift
Tears for Fears
Tom Holland & Zendaya 
Tony Iommi
TwentyOne Pilots


Can't really regret much with that list.  Although I was annoyed B&N canceled my Rod Stewart CD and the Jelly Rolls were Fake. Maybe also having the Wicked CD in my cart to have it sell out before I could complete the checkout. 

Bill Gates on pre-order

Holy Smokes  Quadropheniac !!! Now THAT is what I call a GETS list! Nicely done!

I would love to add an Eminem to my collection, would have to be less expensive though :)

My nicest gets were probably the 

astonishing signed lithography of the Lucky Man lyrics from GREG LAKE, 

fully signatures of BILL BRUFORD on his drumsticks, autobiography and a classic prog rock YES vinyl,

colorful anniversary edition of Cloud Atlas signed by DAVID MITCHELL,

the Loom vinyl art print of IMAGINE DRAGONS,

the divine litho of the Battito Infinito vinyl autographed by EROS RAMAZZOTTI,

the glooming Blue Electric Light art print by LENNY KRAVITZ,

the obscure Dire Straits Making Movies vinyl immortalized by JOHN ILLSLEY and DAVID KNOPFLER

the always classy Retrospective vinyl litho by BRYAN FERRY

My little regret would have been the missed MARK KNOPFLER signed insert of One Deep River...

Great collecting this year  Eddy White !!!

Thanks Jimmy. All the best for the upcoming 2025 collecting year !
