Vintage items or new?

I was just curious about what people like to send out to get signed. I prefer vintage items. The last thing I bought from Ebay was an original 1945 ad for the film The Big Sleep that I will send to Lauren Bacall.

It seems like a lot of you prefer photos. What do you like to get signed?

I sometimes like sending old things, as in sending old cards or something. I wouldn't risk sending something old enough to be worth a lot of money to someone in case of it being lost, though.

I'm very cautious of sending items ttm to be signed, so I prefer modern photo's as they're not of any monetary value or personal value. If I had an old photo like you mention, I think I would send an IC to be signed and then frame it with the photo. I'm a bit of a wimp as my local postal service is pretty shocking :lol:

I just send pictures or index cards. There have been times when I have been tempted to send a dvd or cd cover but I worry too much about never getting it back. If it's anything like all the pictures I've sent then I'll never see them again!
