Dec. 31st, 2009 07:15 pm Autograph Book 2 list.

I started this book when I went to Forbidden Planet in London to get Jeff Wayne's autograph, this was due to me forgetting book 1, so I bought another one just to get his autograph in a book.
Since then, when I've mislaid book 1 I've used book 2, such as when I got the autographs on pages 3 through 6.
Also note that I've put the list in date order.

Below is the list of the autographs:

Dec. 31st, 2009 04:45 pm Bought Autographs

Below is a list of Autographs that I've bought, either as a stopgap until I can get said person(s) autograph(s), or that said person has died.
Wherever and whenever possible I like to get my autographs done in person, so these are second best for me (which is not to say they are fake, it's just that I like to meet the person who I want an autograph from).
If I do ever send a letter to get a autograph, I'll post it at that time (but as with bought autographs, I would still like to meet the person).

So far the bought autographs have been:

I bought a few graphic novels, a couple of movies a mug, a salt & pepper set and a transformer.
