I was kicking around one of my favorite thrift shops the other day. Out back, they had a big bin full of books, and the sign said "Free for nothing". They were in pretty bad shape, and were mostly ready for the junkpile. However, I couldn't resist, so I began to dig through the pile. I found a beat up copy of "Bubbles", the autobiography of Beverly Sills. Inside the cover, on one of the few pages that was not wet and wrecked, was a lovely signature which said "Love to Bernie and Rose, Beverly Sills". I also found a decent picture in the book, and have cut the sig and matted it with the pic, and it makes a very impressive piece. ALL FOR FREE! To view this great freebie, click HERE!

Jamie Lee Curtis' autograph is one which has been the subject of great debate. There are two very distinct styles of her signature to be found. Her mother (ala Harlow) has signed many of her autograph requests. Here are some examples of common signatures.
