I thought you were looking for unsigned cards to send TTM.
But for signed cards you might be better off buying what are called certs. It's short for "certified autographed card" and you mostly will find them online. I've found that looking for cards of celebrities online to be much more hard to locate than sports cards, but they can be found. There is a site that I know of that sells celebrity cards, but when I went to look on that site the other day I got hit with a computer virus/spyware (from a malicious ad), so I won't give out the URL for it for at least a week. (I had though my anti-virus software blocked it but apparently it didn't. So I'd rather be be safe than sorry.) I don't know if they sell singles and/or certs or only sell them by the box.
Another alternative is to check stores like Target, Wal-Mart, and your local hobby shops and check out what is available. Sometimes you can get lucky by buying a box or pack and find a cert inside. Or you could wind up with a card that has a swatch of clothing worn by an actor inserted in it. These kind of things are relatively rare, but it does happen.
