Collectible Sigs Welcome

I am starting to venture into the world of blogging and what better then to blog about my favorite hobby, collectible sigs. Almost all my autographs you'll see are obtained by me at the team hotel, stadium, practice center, golf tournaments or even public signings. I do pay and send some items in to get signed through SteinerSports mostly, but rarely often. The whole enjoyment of this hobby is to obtain the autographs yourself and enjoy the accomplishment at the end of the day. Behind every signature is a good story!!

I have tons of autographs and just starting a blog so for the first few post, I'll be sharing some of my memorable and favorite autographs. When the 2008-09 hockey season starts, my post will be in a more sequential order.

FAQs
  1. What sports do I collect autographs for? My main focus is hockey, but I do venture out into basketball, football and baseball from time to time.
  2. Where do you get the autographs from? Team hotels, practice facility, stadium, golf tournaments, public signings and sometimes, but rarely, pay and send items in to private signings.
  3. Can you share some of the hotels the teams stay at? Not to sound mean, but in this hobby, everyone pays their due to find out such information and I won't share this.
  4. Do you sell your items? I don't sell any of my autographs. Everything I get, I keep. This is a hobby I enjoy and NOT a business for profit.
  5. What items do you mainly get signed? My 2 main items I get signed are jerseys, McFarlane figures and cards. I think by now, my collection is well over 100 figures signed and over 300 cards signed after 3 years of graphing.
