Autograph collection for sale!

Dear all,

I have decided after nearly 30 years collecting to sell the majority of my collection. Below are the first list of signatures for sale. I have over 4,500 autographs and hundreds of guitar picks, passes, record awards, stage worn clothing, letters, signed guitars, everything! I have collected loads in person and purchased the rest at auctions and reputable dealers/collectors.

Richard.

Hi Kevin - Yes, I would be interested. There are a couple of items I am keeping, but would consider selling the rest as a whole collection. Do you want to PM to discuss further? Are you based in the UK?

Best wishes, Richard.

I am based in New Jersey, I am guessing from the context of your response that you are based in the UK.

I do not think it would prohibit us from doing business though. If not the whole she-bang maybe I could grab 500 or 1000 pieces to start. With multiple transactions occuring.

I would obviously need to thoroughly evaluate the inventory.

Please feel free to send me a PM here. Perhaps we can setup an appointment to skype or something similar to discuss. With all due respect to the forum if this is frowned upon but you can reach me at this email directly

Thank you Kevin, that sounds good.

I'll email you over the weekend and send you a complete list and we can arrange to discuss over Skype or other means. I have the majority of the collection in storage, but a lot at my home. We can sort something out I am sure.

Best wishes,

Richard.

Nope not frowned upon at all :) - the only thing Steve and I discussed earlier this year was that if people fwd emails to the list, they need to take out the personal email addresses (and pls make sure there are no personal info ie addresses, phone numbers - unless business)

This is very cool. I think you guys will both win/win, Richard is one of the members here that while I don't know him personally, I'm sure he has an AWESOME collection. Many of the members here do a great job with that.
