Noob here. How much should one expect a Connery or Craig autograph to go for?
Is there any Bond actors/actresses that will actually sign something if you send them a letter?
I know back in the day a lot of people would write celebrities and some were good about autographing a photo and sending it back?
My grandmother passed away 2 years ago ( ) and while she didn't have many things that she could pass on to me, I found an old towel that she used even up until her death. It appears that Telly Savalas and Ford had some sort of deal to promote their products.
EDIT: They made some commercials back in '82, so that probably dates this towel back to then.
In Belgium, my grandfather worked at the Genk factory of Ford and they might've given that to him while he was there [he also got to buy a discounted Escort Mk1/Mk2, one of them being green oddly (that's worse than Higgy-babes trainers, I'm sure), as well as a Ford branded necktie as a celebration of a certain number of cars being produced there. (The Mk1 has had its roof collapsed due to a storage mishap and the Mk2 was sold in the 80s.)].
I might just have won coolest "technically an autograph but not really" award here.
I will cherish it until the end of time. Makes me feel even more sad that we never saw a Bond film together (or that I didn't spend as much time as I could've when she was around).
Even UV coated glass isn't 100% protective......could always copy it and hang copy on the wall.
I have a James Bond signed card from his show last year that I went to . The thing is its signed in a very sharp pen - why they did that goodness knows.
Anyway Id love to hang it in a frame , but worried it will fade . If its in a room where the sunlight doesnt fill the room will it make any difference, or is it just being out in the light that will fade it ? Thanks
I hope you all are well! I was able to pick up this GE clapper for the opening bid (£500) with no other bidders which has me a bit worried since this was a popular movie, and I have seen these things go for big money at auction houses. Since I am a bit out of my element on this one, I wondered if you all wouldn't mind looking it over for me, or if you knew anyone who knows clapper boards enough to give a good estimation on them?
Got this several years ago, from a dealer that are AFTAL and UACC affiliates. I haven’t seen many Christopher Lee signatures around so thought I would post this and see what you thought?
Her new sig is sloppy , same with Walken.......Walken used to write nicely but these days it's a sloppy "CW" initials only kinda sig (even worse across the face often

@ Tilly Masterson 007, Yes I do I am hoping to add some more autographs to my collection in the near future. Rachel Grant is currently number one on my want list.

Rachel Grant is a fairly common autograph so you should get her easily.

I am planning on getting Rachel Grant via Bondstars in the near future. Also I really would like to get stuntman Vic Armstrong's autograph as well. Also I have been wanting to share this for a long time, I got this from 007 Magazine in 2017.

I believe it will still fade over time even if it's not in direct sunlight.
