Popular Post Prubangboy Posted November 13, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 13, 2023 I had some punk rock stuff like a signed Jamie Reid poster and a check signed by Elvis. All happily now gone with the wind, post Chiang Mai-move. Anybody own anything interesting in the broad category of memorabilia? Posters, footie shirts, old souvenirs etc? I used to collect old menu's. One from The Titanic just sold for $100K: https://edition.cnn.com/style/titanic-menu-sold-auction-intl-scli/index.html I previewed this question for NextG. He said: "I am a very serious man and I do not go to prostitutes. I don't have their autographs either. Why? Why are you asking me this?". 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobthegimp Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 John Candy signed my ex wife's tits. It eventually wore off, even without showering between Christmas and Easter. A friend of mine worked on a movie with some of the most popular actors of the time. He got me a copy of the DVD and had a few of the stars sign it. I thanked him, but hid it in his DVD collection when he went for another beer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's some vids of Bruce engaging and signing stuff. Ringo won't sign anything since he keeps seeing it show up on Ebay. I bought my Elvis check at a charity auction ($200). I got my Jamie Reid poster signed at his gallery showing in New York ($100 -F Forever if you want to google-image it). I would never approach an artist to ask for anything. Tho one time I saw James Brown at a traffic crossing on 5th Avenue and asked him when his old R+B stuff would be re-released. James shrugged and said, "It all about the dollar".

The firmest bitch hand in music in his day. The Godfather of Soul didn't take any guff from the ladies. I remember the story of him driving his pickup 70 mph in the wrong lane while giving his 13th wife etiquette lessons with the back of his hand.

I remember the story of him driving his pickup 70 mph in the wrong lane while giving his 13th wife etiquette lessons with the back of his hand. This was the era when he was playing with a 9-piece band in bars due to crack. Those were some raggedy shows ($10 on a Tuesday -$15 on a weekend). You could have prob bought Please, Please, Please off of him for a jumbo rock or two. I have actually asked for an autograph one time in my life -from the gospel singer, Dorothy Love Coats, who's rough-style Alabama singing influenced Little Richard. It was a park concert and I had a reception invite. She wrote In HIS name, On this date, and then a big sig and the date. Yeah, that's gone with the wind too.

Popular Post scorecard Posted November 13, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 13, 2023 (edited) I had a pack of about 20 photos of self and Vietnam war army buddies taken just before / just after patrols / contacts. To me they were very valuable, emotional and meaninful photos. Two buddies in the photos were later killed in action. Many of my buddies had written their names and addresses on the back of the photos for a mooted reunion. I returned to OZ with enormous PTSD, anxiety, panic issues which my wife couldn't handle (don't blame her). She asked for a divorce and I agreed. Instantly the divorce was granted she removed all of my possessions from the house and threw them away, including the pack of photos. I cried when I discovered the photos were never to be seen again.

In fact, someone mentioned such an autograph to me just yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would only do it if a friend or family was a fan or if someone asked. Because it is a bit cringeworthy, but if for a good cause… There are lots of famous people whom I didn’t ask. Not because they weren’t famous enough, but because no one specifically asked me to do so. Then there was the phenomenon of famous people coming over to talk to me or people thinking that I was a famous person. I don’t know if they were linked.
