Historical autograph collectors based in the UK might be interested in the Autographica convention, run by Showmasters. I've been to other ones they've run, but not Autographica. In case anyone's interested the website is http://www.autographica.co.uk/

I haven't had any responses in the other forum regarding 'Historical Autographs', so maybe I will here. I would love to write American WWII Veterans; maybe Pearl Harbor Survivors or members of Easy Company. I know many Easy Company veterans don't respond to them, because of the show, but some were not portrayed in the show, so they are not as "famous". Does anyone happen to have any addresses in this field? If you do, please PM me!

There is already a topic about this here:

I'm glad to hear that you are interested in collecting historical autographs!

I sent one to Milvina Dean a month before she died! I sent money order and all to try to help out. Never heard back then seen she died, so I never got to get one back.

Sorry to hear you never got a reply from Millvina. She was such a sweet lady. Hopefully you'll be able to find one soon.

I have Miep Gies. She's a wonderful woman who helped protect Anne Frank's family during WWII.

Very Jealous of your Eisenhour signature, and then you even got Nixon. Very jealous. HAHHAHAHA.

Those are all awesome signatures. I have all the Apollo Mission Signatures, along with some key players in flight command like Gene Kranz. I have a couple president autographs. I am very interested in WWII signatures right now. I would love to have the book signed like your teacher, wow is all i can say on that one. I'm trying to find addresses for WWII fighter aces alive now. Also trying to find the mailing or contact address for the Emperor of Japan or Royal Family. Anyone know some cool ideahs to write to or addresses of key people?
