Stanley Gibbons

Hi All,

I am a Darkside coin collector and live on the Darkside coin thread ( although lately due to time constrictions I have been sleeping on that thread ).

I have a question about Autographs, or rather, about a company that sells autographs.

There is a company in the UK called Stanley Gibbons, although they have an American representative as well.

Has anyone here dealt with this company ?

If so could you please let me know about your experience with them ?

Many thanks,

Zar

They do appear to be reputable stamp dealers, but this is the the first time I've read about autographs.

Your opinion on this would be appreciated.

Thanks for the link. Fraser's should be fine. They have a store in The Strand. They do seem a bit pricey. Their lifetime guarantee is on retail items, so I don't know if it applies to auctions. A good dealer won't mind answering questions. If you're looking at particular piece, ask about it's provenance. They should be able to tell you where they got and how they know the signature is real.

Here are some of my collection of autographed "FDC" First Day Covers.
Stanley Gibbons are the most famouse stamp dealers in the world.
