Star Wars Signatures

Post by AaronDB94 »

Do any of you have a collection of signatures? I've never been big on them myself but must admit I did buy a Jango Fett figure and dropped it off to Temuera Morrison's agent especially to get it signed by him.

I decided that I had to get the signature of the New Zealander who had the coolest part in any of the Star Wars movies....well except for Clive Revill but again that could be because ESB is my favourite movie haha

While I haven't actively collected Star Wars signatures, I have been sure to get the autographs of any of the stars that I've been lucky enough to meet. This has included Ray Park (Darth Maul), Billy Dee Williams (Lando Calrissian) and Daniel Logan and Temuera Morrison (Boba and Jango Fett).

I also bought a supposed George Lucas signature (or, more to the point 'initials') off an autograph collector at the Wellington Armageddon in 2007 - though unfortunately I have no way of identifying the authenticity of this.

Friends in LA got George to sign a wedding card for us a few years back:

Kristy and I haven't gone out of our way to collect many autographs, but have sought out those of NZ Star Wars celebs (link to pics), and we, through the help of a contact, get the autograph of almost all of the SW guests at Celebration IV on their respective bio pages in the official programme.

'You Rebel Scum' that was on our answering machine when I was at Uni....I would have definatly gone after his autograph just for that reason alone haha

I'm trying to rack my brain now to think of an autograph that I'd go out of my way to get but I just can't seem to think of one????

Gees Matt that's a pretty impressive collection.....did you get to chat with most of them or was time a bit of a factor??

Julian Glover is another person I'd like to meet because even though his part in ESB isn't that big General Veers always stuck in my mind when I was a kid....and of coarse because of his role in The Last Crusade.

new fragrance?? has he turned all Britney Spears on us hahaha

Was he kean to talk about Star Wars or was he one of these actors who want to talk about anything but....I still can't believe how Alec Guinness could bag Star Wars so much when it made him so much more famous (and rich) to so many more people?? I definatly wouldn't have wanted his autograph

To be honest, I wasn't aware of the extent of Clive Revill's involvement in the SW universe...I did a bit of internet research and was interested to find out he did voice work for the old 'X-Wing'/'X-Wing vs TIE Fighter' games too.
