What do you do with your Auto collection?

Unread post by dmoss1015 »

In reading countless posts about hundreds of successes, I am wondering what one does with this many autographs.... do you frame them all, or only the favorites? Do you file the rest away, sell them?

My collection is small but unique (I'm guessing). Instead of sending letters and SASEs, I decided to free-hand pencil portraits of my favorite or well-known celebs and send a copy to be signed. It takes a lot more time and effort, but to me it's well worth it. I have fifteen portraits so far and only six autos. I'm waiting on four right now. And yes, all six are on my wall, as will any others that are returned to me. The signed photos, however, are in a drawer. They just don't live up to the others.

Here is my collection...

If you want to know more about my drawings, let me know. :)
I couldn't settle for autographed photos, so I draw them instead.
I have drawn 21 celeb portraits so far. Thousands more to go....

Recent autographed drawings:
John Glenn, Channing Tatum, Jennie Finch (IP)

Wow really nice portraits! {up}

I put mine on the wall and since I am a babysitter, I show the little kids my autographs because my autographs are mainly from kids show and I might give one to them on their birthday!

I keep all my autographs in a binder called THE NERD BOOK.

(I actually have 2 binders now. :) )

I also have a handful in frames that I love, and I switch out from time to time.

I keep mine in a folder just now, as I collect for charity.

Great drawings, by the way!

Yeah I didn't think of putting them in a book... my originals are all in a sketch portfolio. I never send out originals (obviously) because they may never come back. Thanks for your compliments! :mrgreen:
