Description
I have 5 days to ship an item after payment. Sometimes I am able to ship right away, sometimes it will take longer, but definitelywithin
the 5 day period. If this is a problem for you please don't bid. I have other shops out of
town
and I travel often.
Things to know: I will offer free 1st class shipping to continental US 48 states only. I've collected autographs for many years. I was a starstruck young southern rural kid and moved to L.A. in 1985 to become a struggling actor. I had an obsession with autographs. I went to shows and collected and also purchased. I have been collecting for nearly 40 years.
This recent collection is from a gentleman who was a well known ephemera collector who passed away about 12 years ago. I was able to purchase several dozen out of probably about 1000+ because of budgetary constraints. I stand by my inventory. I will gladly offer a 7 day return and complete refund if you are not completely satisfied. Condition: most of what I purchased are circa 1900-1960's and so expect some wear to the photos/papers signed. They may have yellowed, creased corners, creases, toning etc. Don't hesitate to ask
questions
and I will try my best to note major issues. Enjoy!
From Wiki: Garfield Wood (1887-1971)
Garfield Arthur "Gar" Wood was an American inventor, entrepreneur, and championship motorboat builder and racer who held the world water speed record on several occasions. He was the first man to travel over 100 miles per hour on water. He had
quite
the career. Spent years in Michigan
where
he
died
in 1971. This is a cut signature/autograph. It measures about 4.75" x 1" and below that someone wrote SPEED BOAT KING.
Nice strong signature one corner tear and some
creasing which does not affect the signature.
My Items I sell are not new. They have been used so do not expect mint condition unless otherwise noted. Measurements are approximate and may not be totally exact. Keep this in mind when bidding. I do not end auctions early so please don't ask, thanks.
