This is my favorite autograph. I never thought I'd own a Honus Wagner card, let alone his signature. The thing I love about this piece is that it was once in Honus' hands and through fate has made its way to me nearly 80 years later. I suppose that's true of all autographs but this is Honus Wagner! Look how sharp this bad boy is.

My favorite
My most prized autograph is a Nolan Ryan ball. My father sent it to him when I was twelve and asked him to sign it for me. He was so proud to be able to give me that ball. My father was not huge on giving me gifts--most Christmas or birthday presents came from my mother. So, the effort he put into getting me that present has always made it a priceless autograph for me. And now it is one of the few pieces I actually display in my apartment.

Another two I very much like:
Eric Idle of Monty Python. I met him at a book store in Sherman Oaks, California, and got his signature. I have never been as nervous or excited at meeting a celebrity, and I've met quite a few living in Los Angeles for 35 years. To me, the Pythons were bigger than the Beatles.  Groucho Marx. I've been a Marx Brothers fan since I was little and Groucho was instantly my favorite the first time I saw him do Hooray For Captain Spaulding. I've long collected Groucho memorabilia and read my copy of Richard Anobile's The Marx Brothers Scrapbook until it fell apart [I later bought a hardcover 1st edition]. I have long thought that a Groucho-signed Bowman card would be the best possible Groucho item for me to have. I found this one a few months ago:

He couldn't hold a candle to you, Graig. (But he was a better juggler.)
