Donkey Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Maybe we could celebrate such a successful mail-out, with an announcement of a hollywood star, or moonwalker. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Count Fooku Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 I think his non attendance at these shows is more his choice than anyone elses, I don't think there would be any shortage of takers if he said he wanted to do a show like this.

Moderators DavidB Posted September 4, 2011 Moderators Share Posted September 4, 2011 It's not really relevant when you ordered. They seem to have all been sent out on the date above, so I don't think you need to worry quite yet knowing our postal system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't Gene Kranz want to come last year, but was never asked?. So in some cases thats not true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't Gene Kranz want to come last year, but was never asked?. So in some cases thats not true. That may be the case with Gene Kranz or others, I honestly have no idea. The answer I gave was in response to a query specifically about Michael Collins who has gone on record a number of times regarding his feelings towards autograph collectors. Maybe his stance is softening somewhat as he has done a number of mail in signings and book signings over the years and I believe he did do an in person signing at a commercial event a couple of year back in the US but I understand that was as a personal favour to the organisers of that show who he has a long standing relationship with and that was strictly a one off. Essentially the point I was trying to make was anyone hoping to see him at a UK signing event probably ought not to hold their breath, although no one would be happier than me to be proved wrong on this.

Gene Kranz was asked but declined. I have personally asked him when i met him a while back and again last year. Many astronauts are contacted and asked if they would like to attend, of all those asked only a few will end up with us at Autographica. Some will never do shows no matter how many times they are asked, But never giving up i will ask them anyway in the hope that one day they will come around. Ten years ago the thought in many space enthusiasts minds was to meet Men who had walked on the moon and flown in space, We have made that dream into a reality for many such people and will continue to do so as long as we get the support of our attendees.

Dave Phillips You're right to pull me up on my post Dave! Gene wasn't the correct name of who I was thinking of, and as I can't now source the original information - it's best forgotten. Apologies. Whilst I have your attention though, can you confirm if there is still the possibility of more space guests still to come, or is this pretty much the final line-up?

Count Fooku Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 I'm not sure if its OK to post this on here or not but if you check out Autografica's ebay shop they have a number of signed Sharpe items for sale. For example: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Sharpe-signed-ca...=item563abfe29f I believe the owner of Autografica was also involved in the running of the Autographica show at one time and so hopefully mentioning them isn't totally against the rules here!

For michael cochrane, ive ordered some stuff from SOS im thinking of getting him to sign and if ever get lucky with the rest of the cast, they can sign them also. thanks count, will ahve a look, but im not a massive auto collector and never been a fan of getting any that ive not met in person, esp if im not sure about if there legit or not, but it is sharpe so I might, will see.

Queen_Sindel Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 The picture the Count linked is the one I have. It is a really nice one. I got an extra one signed as a Christmas gift for one of my friends in the States who is a massive Sharpe fan too. Her family said it took over an hour until she stopped going "oh my god oh my god oh my god" after she opened the package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
