Provenance:


We are proud to offer part of the "Florence Collection", an amazing IN PERSON collection of signatures from the late 1930's to the early 1950's by a true original chaser. This woman had her autograph album books ready and most likely haunted the exit doors of famed establishments as she carefully dated almost all the pages and wrote where she obtained the signature on the side or bottom of every page. She attended many Broadway plays, Big Band shows and Radio shows, obtaining signatures of the actors with many very rare signatures included, most all of them personalized to Florence. 


Autographs and Authentication:

There is no collectible genre that has more deceit than the autograph business. With twenty-five years in the business, we can honestly say that if there is even a 1% chance of something being fraudulent, we won't offer it for sale. We purchase from reputable sources, major auction houses and a small number of trusted autograph chasers. When we say it was obtained IN PERSON, it was obtained IN PERSON! Our inventory isn't "full" of the A-List names (as a person who has chased, we know how impossible it is to get quantities, or even come away with one) that are most in demand, but we offer a wide variety of interesting and uncommon signatures in our store. Of all of the authenticating houses out there, we recognize PSA/DNA or JSA as being above the rest and if you choose to get something authenticated by them and it is deemed suspect, we will be more than happy to give you a full refund. Please print out this eBay page after your purchase as your (tswmu) LOA or COA.
