Autograph Gifts - Give Them Their Favorite Celebrity
When looking for a special gift, consider purchasing something that will be cherished for years to come.
Autographs have been called "frozen moments in time." People who own autographs could be considered curators of history. The most personal item that one person can give is his or her signature. Anything that can be signed can be considered collectible - letters, documents, photographs, books, memorabilia, etc. Few objects give a person the opportunity to own a unique or one-of-a-kind item that is actually part of someone who is known by millions of people. That is the main reason why autographs has become one of the fastest growing hobbies and popular gift giving items in recent years.
At Strickler's Celebrity Autographs, all autographed items we sell are either signed in our presence or obtained directly from a known & certified source. We go to great lengths to establish authenticity of our autographs, especially in an age of the internet and online auctions that have become a safe haven for forgers and inexperienced sellers of secretarial, facsimiles and forgeries. We provide you 30+ years of experience and integrity.
We sell vintage and unknown signed items only after extensive research and when confirmed as genuine. We have over 30+ years of experience in authenticating and appraising autographs and are trained in forensic handwriting and document examination using techniques that include forensic examination, exemplar comparisons, ink analysis, paper/age testing, pen pressure, etc. In the uncommon event that there is a signature with which we or our associates are unfamiliar, we have access to other recognized experts as well as an extensive library of reference materials and archive of authentic signatures for comparison. We sell ONLY authentic, hand-signed autographed memorabilia. NO REPRODUCTIONS or PREPRINTS are ever offered for sale.
The items we offer for sale are either signed in our presence or for our designated associate in-person at a show, private signing, premiere or other event. Our associates have many years of experience in entertainment including credited work on major motion pictures and television productions, professionals in the music industry, entertainment agents as well as concert and regional fair promoters. Some of our items are also signed by the celebrities in the privacy of their home, office or on working location. In order to obtain a wide variety of quality items, we have trusted contacts across the United States and the UK.
