Vintage Celebrity Autographs
by William M.
(Wellingborough. Northants)
My mother was an avid autograph collector but aimed at historical signatures. I now have her book.
The autographs that stick in my mind are of the complete Everest team (1953)two of which stayed with my parents in New Delhi prior to the climb. I later met Sir John Hunt(Leader)when he visited my school and I was presented to him.
Other signatures worth mentioning were of; Arthur Askey, Larry Adler, Alfred Hitchcock,Lord and Lady Mountbatten, King of Nepal, Eric Korda, Sybil Thorndike and a few others. All were collected in India.
