I don't keep many autographs other than my rock book. Here are a few that are important to me.

Dedication of the John F. Kennedy Presidential Libary. Is was built next to my college and I watched the construction from the science library. I got press credentials for the dedication and took these two photos. I printed both photos in the darkroom (8x10). The first one I also drymounted to a mat board and cut the mat and framed it. The second one is unframed.

Nathaniel Hawthorne - I got the signature and engraving separately. I built the frame and matted it. Mat is actually double mat burgundy over black. Frame is a nice solid wood frame in gold about an inch deep. It hangs on our entryway wall next to my wife's Renoir engraving.
