I believe in giving a portion to charity so that an authentic autograph can have a real-life impact. Every item up for sale has its own story, and part of my interest in collecting autographs is researching their history and the era when I suspect they were signed. As you're shopping, please remember that some of these items have been treasured by others or signed years ago in another season of the artist's career. I do my best to document any flaws in my items in the listing photos, but some flaws speak to the authenticity of the item, the age of the piece, and you never know -- a crease in a photo might have been placed there by the artist itself in the rush of the graph.
