Description

Huge collection of approximately 9000 pieces…hundreds of pounds of photos, signatures, and letters spanning over 100 years, covering many genres

A collosal collection of approximately 9,000 items, which encompasses many fields of autograph collecting, and spans from the 1800s to the late 20th century, consisting primarily of signed photos, postcards, signatures, and letters. Offered in the collection are vintage and contemporary stars of the silver screen (including a smattering of Academy Award–winners), a copious amount of early stage actors and actresses from both America and abroad, Olympic athletes, male and female opera singers, television stars from the early days to recent, international ballet dancers, and various other genres of music, with a smattering other notables mixed in. Some of the photos are inscribed as well, and the collection is neatly housed in a number of binders. Collection rates overall very good to fine condition. Also due to the vast number of items, a few secretarial/and or printed signatures may be included. Weighing in at approximately 300 pounds, please be advised that extra shipping charges will apply. The sheer overwhelming volume of items and a number of unknown entertainers precludes a list, and interested parties are strongly advised to view the collection in person at our offices, as this collection is sold as is, and no returns will be accepted. Collections of this size and scope are seldom offered in whole, and with thousands of pieces, there are undoubtedly still many discoveries that lie within. Oversized. RRAuction COA.
