<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DonnaML, post: 5365680, member: 110350&quot;]I don&#039;t collect autographs, although I have a number of autographed copies of books that I bought when they were new, when I used to go to Barnes &amp; Noble a lot at lunchtime (there was one near my office for many years) and they would almost always have a table of autographed copies of new books near the front.</p><p><br /></p><p>When I fell on difficult times some years ago, I discovered that such autographed books are so plentiful they&#039;re basically worthless, with few exceptions. </p><p><br /></p><p>The only autograph I have that I really like and have framed on my wall is a letter that A.A. Milne wrote to my father in 1927, when my father was seven years old, in response to a fan letter my father had written asking what the A.A. stood for. (See attached.) I hope that most of you know who A.A. Milne was, although I have no idea if &quot;kids today&quot; still read the original Winnie the Pooh books, or <i>When We Were Very Young</i> and <i>Now We Are Six</i>, as opposed to just being familiar with the Disney version. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1228194[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
