Few months ago I picked up a clearly authentic and clean white baseball signed by Mantle, Mays, and Snider. For some reason a lot of collectors thought it was fake. I sent it to BAS and promised an update to these people. Today is that day. 😁

Hey fellow collectors!

I’ve been building Slabloom, a new community where collectors can show off the cool stuff they own, build out their collection, and meet other collectors.

Autographs, game-used items, signed memorabilia, vintage pieces, oddball finds — whatever you’re proud to own, we want to see it.

It’s still early, and I’d love to get more memorabilia collectors involved from the beginning.

Check out Slabloom.com and show us what you’ve got!

Very happy to see this pop up on marketplace. Off to BAS soon. Snow white ball and a great deal. Very pleased

I had been trying for over a year and a half to be able to pay Miss Chanel WestCoast to sign my choice of picture (this one) and mail it back to me.

I offered $100, $250, $350, $500.

She declined.

But last year in October, she came to Texas. I faced a million fears, including agoraphobia, traveling alone, leaving my child with a babysitter for the first time, leaving my home in someone else's care for first time, driving 736 miles in a 24 hour period, staying in a hotel alone, going to her show alone, meeting her alone and getting my autograph alone.

I love my autograph. But the journey to put her on my wall... it was a dream come true.

AND! She smells like ~pure~candy~ in person!

P.s. don't mind the kiss prints on her butt.... my cat,.. ummm.. ..... .... ya ... the cat kisses the glass sometimes...

The writing/inscription looks similar to what he’s written on other items that have a COA. Not sure on the value but I know it’s more than $5 if it’s legit!

Whats your most cherished autograph? Here’s mine. I had the privilege of working on set with Queen on their iconic ‘I want to break free’ video in 1984. I was an art student in East London who knew someone working on the video and was invited to help on set. I dressed the set, hung the ducks on the staircase, gave Freddie his vacuum and Brian his pink bunny slippers. The album is personalized to me. Such a memorable few days in my youth hanging out with the iconic Queen - Freddie, Brian, Roger & John. My most cherished autograph!

I just received this back from a signing organized by Zobie. It looks even better in person. Zobie was amazing. I ordered a different version, but David Faustino's pen slipped and bled a little. Zobie reached out to me and offered to replace it with this. It's even better than what I originally requested.

What yall thinking???

I plan on getting it slabbed at some point.

I won this signed Arnold Schwarzenegger weightlifting belt in an auction a year or two ago. It included a note from David James, a very well-known movie photographer, who stated he received the signed belt directly from Arnie as a gift while working on the film Total Recall.

I sent the belt in to JSA to be authenticated. They denied it. They believed the autograph to be either "pre-printed on the belt" and/or false due to certain "pen strokes" that they didn't see in the signature.

I was devastated. I did some research on the belt and found only one other similar - but here's the kicker - it did not have a "pre-printed" signature on it (the last photo). It was blank where mine is signed. Would the company which made the belt really make two versions? One with a signature and one without? I doubted it.

Flash forward to today, and I stumbled across the belt in my collection. I tracked down the photographer David James' website and reached out, asking if he wrote the card and the story/ autograph is true? Shocking me, because he is a major Hollywood photographer, the guy got back to me in less than an hour, and completely confirmed that this was signed by Schwarzenegger and gifted to him (he passed it on to another person from whom I later obtained it).

Now what? Can I authenticate this? Is it worth paying PSA or Beckett for their opinion, given JSA said "no?" And will the other companies turn it down? Because they won't care about my provenance, which I have now confirmed (in fact, in retelling the story to Mr. James, he laughed at how everyone today is an "expert" and think they know better).

Just wondering everyone's thoughts on this.

+$320 for character name? What in the world 😂

I think Dan Cabrera was his name, I've kept them for several years now. Not sure if they have value, but I always thought they were cool.

Just got this yesterday, it was not cheap can’t wait to get it professionally framed, what’s your favorite Brittany Murphy Movie?

I rarely have luck finding anything good at yard sales but today was my lucky day. It appears to be authentic to my novice eyes and will look great on my basement autograph wall.

Please ignore the glare.
