When Heath Ledger passed, I knew a few of the guys chasing him in Chicago to get him on Joker photos and I got scans and pics of all the pieces they had seen or got. A few months later one of the nicest signed pieces went up for auction and I decided to snag it. I guess a few other people knew what it was, and before I knew it ....the auction ending at 10pm had been repeatedly extended by 10 minutes until about 2am.

All in, it was probably under $1500 and I have been offered 3x's that, so I guess it was an ok buy. For Modern Actors, he is as close as Hollywood has come to Brando, James Dean, or whatever iconic figure you want to name. A Joker 8x10 signed by Heath is as good as it gets.

I think if someone offered me $4500 for that, I'd do it.

I am a firm believer that everything has it's price. I am a Marvel guy anyway....someday I will let it go free.

Yes, yes, yes. Everything has a price.

Agreed.

It's a great piece. I can't blame you for not letting it go.

That's a great piece. I loved the movie, and Ledger gave an amazing performance. I think he was on a trajectory to be one of the greats. His extremely early passing was such a sad thing.

Around $20-$25 dollars,as many charge that amount for an 8X10 autograph at Comic Conventions and the like.I think Linda Blair was $35.

Well, I don't know if this counts as a "single" autograph, but the mosT I've spent was $24,000 for a copy of "Beatles For Sale" which is the 4th UK Studio Album. Only 3 are known to exist.
