Whose autographs do you have?

I have personalized photos from Joan Collins, Stephanie Beacham, Sela Ward, and Amy Grant. But wait, it gets gayer...I have an old letter from Joan Crawford, and signed books from Joan Rivers and Debbie Reynolds. I want an autographed photo from Morgan Fairchild, but just haven't gotten one yet. What about you all, fellow homosexual autograph hounds?

I have a fair number of autographed books: Whoopi Goldberg, Stewart Granger, former poet laureate John Masefield, late British folklorist James Wentworth Day, Josh Kilmer Purcell, Mr. Blackwell the designer, Duchess Fergie, Kenneth Williams, author Chris Mooney. There are a lot more, but I'd have to comb through the bookcases and I don't have time just now.

Lauren Bacall, Joan Rivers and Gore Vidal

I just have some from my fave singer. No-one else.

by Anonymousreply 3February 18, 2021 11:40 AM

1. Music Albums: Martha Wainwright, Ben Lee, Keren Ann, Lisa Moscatiello

2. An autographed copy of Jane Fonda's "Prime Time", which I won on Twitter

3. An autographed, numbered copy of Tony Dow's coloring book. I crushed on him from a young age (80s reruns), and this was an easy way to get the autograph I wanted. It's on my bookcase in an envelope, and I still need to frame it.

I'm not a tattoo person, but I really want to get Cher to autograph my arm, so I can have it tattooed. I could have the signature tattooed anyway, but it wouldn't be the same without having had her do it in person.

At the height of their popularity, I stood in a long line to get the book and CD signed by ALL FIVE (!) of the Queer Eye guys. I know that it'll be worth a lot of money someday.

I also have a signed photo of Johnny Depp somewhere. It's a b/w publicity photo from Edward Scissorhands so it's pretty cool.

Oh! Forgot two interesting ones: Alison Dubois, the psychic, and Marion Winik, author of "First Comes Love." Her inscription in that book is one of the loveliest I've ever seen.

What was Joan Crawford's letter about , OP? Please say it was a cunty letter to dear Bette!

I have shreds of a torn up contract signed by Miss Helen Lawson -- with a FOUNTAIN PEN not one of those lousy ballpoints.

I got Andrew Lloyd Webber's signature on a 'Whistle Down the Wind' program from a preview in London. I am sure it is in a box somewhere. Is it valuable?

I’m so sorry for the poor formatting — I was trying to list them!

[quote] with a FOUNTAIN PEN not one of those lousy ballpoints.

I have an autographed photo of Ethel Merman, thanking me for the birthday card I sent her circa 1978. Not only was it signed in ballpoint, there is a coffee stain on the back. I even saved the envelope, as it has 'Air Mail', written in her handwriting

by Anonymousreply 12February 18, 2021 12:06 PM

Mine are very gay. Anton Walbrook, June Havoc and Dorothy Collins. I used to have Ethel Merman, framed and carefully behind glass. Some bad juju caused the damned thing to jump off the wall one day and commit suicide. The glass shattered when it hit the floor and cut the fucking autograph into 3 pieces. I threw the whole mess out of my house.

I also have signed first edition of Megyn Kelly's book SETTLE FOR MORE. Just as her career was imploding over her absurd comments about blackface, I found the book on the shelf at a Goodwill store with a "$1.99" price tag stuck to her chin. Settle for More, indeed. For two bucks, I had to have it. It still makes me chuckle.

Me, again. I forgot that I also have Julie Harris's autograph on a stereo copy of the Broadway cast album of SKYSCRAPER. Also very gay.

Two letters from Alice Ghostley!!! Among my most prized possessions.

R10, you reminded me that I have a DVD and poster signed by Tab Hunter when his documentary came out on DVD. R7, the letter from Joan Crawford was to thank someone for inviting her to their Christmas party. She complimented their decorations and hospitality. It was typed and signed on her signature, light blue stationery, which is only about a 6"×6" sheet of paper.
