Do you keep pre-prints or do you throw them away?

I have been collecting autographs for many years and I've never written or emailed studiofanmail as they are notorious for sending out preprints. Personally I don't think preprints are worth the paper they are printed on as it's not a real autograph and you haven't got the satisfaction of knowing a celebrity actualy touched and signed the photo you recieve. It will also be completely worthless in years to come as it's not a real signature.

I just wondered what other people's views are on this subject? {thumb2}

I don't really like recieving them, but I do keep them if I recieve them. Also, StudioFanMail aen't just notorious for sending out PP's, they only send out PP's. They are a company that works with many celebrities, and never send out anything but PP's

Sometimes you might even be lucky enough to recieve a secratarial or auto-pen

I hate SFM! If celebrities employ them to deal with their fanmail then why bother writing to that celebrity? it's obvious they're never going to read the letter you send them.

SFM send out hundreds every day though. I think PP's have to be pretty rare to be worth something.

Oh sorry

You're right though. Some of the Warner Bros & Fox studios preprints from the 30s/40s of people like Ginger Rogers & Lucille Ball are worth a few pounds

I don't keep them. I can print out facsimile autographs sitting where I am right now.

Yeah I do actually keep all of mine. For the life of me I don't know why. But I do.

When i do receive them, they go into a larger picture slip with the other pre-prints i have. Then i store them away in the back of my autograph binder!! I don't know why i keep them, but i do!
