subject: Famous Celebrity Autograph Checks [print this page] Many of us have a passion for famous celebrity autograph checks. For many autograph collectors, our early interest in autographs began with first edition books that were signed by the author, and our enthusiasm outgrew our bookshelves. We found ourselves inundated with an inventory of books that were stacked knee-high. Despite our love for signed first editions, we knew that our interest in autographs were confined to practical issues such as maintaining adequate living space!
Many autograph collectors consider autograph photos, index cards, and even signed first day covers for their collections. However, many of these items are forged by secretaries and unscrupulous dealers. Genuine collectors love having autographs they know have value because they are authentic. Autograph collectors, artists, fans, and people with varied interests, enjoy autograph material that has a genuine basis.
So, many collectors have gravitated to checks signed by famous celebrities. As a legal document, the signature on a check is almost always assured as being authentic. After all, the payees bank has taken the financial risk and fiduciary responsibility of guaranteeing the signature on a check.
Autograph celebrity checks take up so much less space when compared with signed books or photos. Autographed checks maintained properly in Mylar-D check holders, or in a framed display, are easier to protect and show, when compared to books where an autograph is hidden on a page, or when an autograph blends in with the background color of a photo.
Today, many reputable dealers offer authentic checks and replica checks from famous celebrities that have a genuine appearance. You can enjoy replicas of famous celebrity autograph checks to study signatures, obtain an art form that can make for fascinating displays, and learn about famous personalities.
