We conducted appraisals on many interesting signed collectibles recently. Here is a sample of a few items we were privileged to examine.  

A Bruce Lee signed flyer from the 1971 Thailand movie premiere of "Big Boss" was recently offered for appraisal. The flyer is somewhat rare and the signature is very bold and clean. This is a great example of a signed Bruce Lee collectible all, of which, are very collectible. The owner had purchased it from the Thai collector who obtained the signature.

We placed a fair market value of $1,200 on the entire collection. We are positive that the value could easily be much higher if sold in an auction. The appraisal can be viewed at http://www.whatsitworthtoyou.com under the archive section.

We also received a collection of 59 autographed European artists postcards from 1912-13.  The collection was purchased in 1945 by the owner’s father while he served in France during WWII. Some of the more notable signatures were Enrico Caruso, Rudolf Berger, Nuscha Butze, Maria Carmi, Tilla Durieux, Margarete Ober, Claire Dux, Paul Wegener, Johanna Terwin, Helene Thimig, Annemarie Steinsieck, Lola Artot de Padilla, Cornelius Bronsgeest, Carl Clewing and Gertrud Eysoldt. This is a fantastic collection and very rarely seen together in a set.

We placed a fair market value of $4,200 total on all pieces. The appraisal can be viewed at http://www.whatsitworthtoyou.com under the archive section.

Document of Appointment to Military Service w/ seal dated 1797 signed by Samuel Adams, Governor and Commander in Chief of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts was also presented for an appraisal. Though these documents are not particularly rare, the condition was exceptional and noted on the appraisal. http://www.wiw2u.com/UploadedImages/appimg_102319.jpg
