  1. There is a mini Lee Remick tribute on the morning of Dec 15th, but her birthday is on the 14th, maybe somebody goofed. Oh well, its the thought that counts. And also on the 15th, the greatest motion picture of all time , *Mister Roberts* , starring William Powell and a bunch of other guys. :)

  2. About the Mantle story, if its true then the ball has no value assuming that an "expert" will spot the fake signature. The kid has his cherished memory of meeting the star, if he ever finds out about the "joke" his opinion of Mick might change though. Supposedly Ted Williams' son forged a lot of his dad's autographs in his later years. So I guess the personal contact is what I would value most.

  3. We all have our little hobbies, so I can't say anything bad about autograph collecting except buyer beware when spending big bucks for one. And how does one really authenticate an autograph? For me the only value of an autograph is if its personal; if I had an autograph from someone I met personally or it was handed down to me , like if my grandfather met Babe Ruth and the Babe signed a card for him. And Grandpa gave it to my Dad, who gave it to me. More of a sentimental value, not a dollar and cents one.
