General Tom Thumb Charles Stratton & wife SIGNED album page JSA LOA + PT Barnum

Description: This is an incredible item up for sale that I am so proud to offer! This is an amazing antique autograph album, 150+ years old, that has been signed on various pages by various people from the 1870's. One page in the book has been signed in steel tip purple fountain pen by the legendary Charles Startton, known as Gen. Tom Thumb. Charles Sherwood Stratton was an American with dwarfism who achieved great fame as a performer under circus pioneer P. T. Barnum. He is known for normalizing "Freak show" and "human abnormality" as a form of entertainment, while being a talented actor, singer, dancer, and comedian. He died at the young age of 45. He has signed the page "Charles S. Stratton known as Gen. Tom Thumb." The page has been co-signed by his wife, Lavinia Stratton. She has signed and added "Farmingham, Mass July 18, 1879." Book is in pretty good shape and in tact for its age, although I assume this page will be best removed and used in a framed display or a slab for maximum value. In addition, the item comes with the Full JSA Full Letter of Authenticity with identification sticker #XX87255. It has received the JSA Full Letter of Authenticity. Highly sought after by collectors, dealers and hobbyists alike, our standard LOA contains a digital color image of the item and live signature of autograph expert James Spence, which is witnessed by a licensed notary public. Additional data may include quantity of signatures, manufacturer, make &/or model of the item. It accompanies any item that passes our authentication process and qualifies for the standard letter. A certification label is placed on the item or letter (customer preference) with the corresponding number appearing on the LOA. It is accepted by any major auction house in the country and is viewed as THE letter to have when either displaying your prized possession or offering it online. To maximize the value and interest of your signed collectible, one should have a James Spence Authentication LOA. Each certification number is uploaded into JSA's exclusive database for 24-hour customer verification access. Lifetime of Autographs, LLCPlease add me to your favorites!!!!Welcome to Lifetime Of Autographs, LLC, the place to go for your authentic hand signed memorabilia. I have been dealing in authentic autographs for 20 years. I have sold to over 30,000 customers and references are available at request. Why should you buy from LOA, LLC? Here is why. Because our signatures will leave you with no question on authenticity and they are real. There are no pre-prints, no secretarial signed, no "stock photo" autographs...all hand signed originals!!! The autographed item you get will ALWAYS be the exact item in the scan, no surprises. You will also not see a more unique collection available anywhere as I will be selling autographs from all genres of celebrity. As I add listings daily, you never know just what I will have to offer. You will want to check back every couple days!These signatures have been personally collected through decades of research, hard work, and patience by myself, or by a small group of professionals whom I employ and collect with. My vast knowledge of autographs proves that experience is most important in this hobby. All About Authenticity* Many items will have either a COA from JSA, PSA/DNA, or Beckett (BAS) - all 3 eBay approved authenticators OR an EXACT PROOF photo of the celebrity signing in the listing. If the item has yet to be authenticated, it will come with my personal and well respected COA. You will not see meaningless COA's from random people, nor photos called proof that are anything but. Don't believe that just because someone has a photo of someone signing or a photo with a celebrity that the autographs they sell are real. Event photos may be shown for added assurance.* You will not find a seller with pre-authenticated material at a better Buy It Now price anywhere on eBay. If you do, I will be willing to price match on Fixed Price listings. E-mail me for details! * The selection of signatures I will be offering is so vast and unique. You will be seeing musicians from every genre of music, actors, models, political names, artists, inventors, businessmen, sports heroes, porn stars, heroes, the infamous, etc. You just never know whose autograph you may find as I have 1000's of certified authentic signatures to list.* Items that have not been professionally authenticated have been acquired in person. While my goal with Lifetime of Autographs is to have most autographs authenticated, it is a very expensive process and not always available for newer celebrities/bands. I stand by my autographs 100% for the life of the item. Any autograph purchased from me WILL PASS ANY EBAY APPROVED AUTHENTICATOR GUARANTEED, or I will refund you for the life of the item. Feel free to use PSA/DNA?s Quick Opinion Service on any signature I have, and I am confident you will be pleased with the results. My autographs are real and have been acquired through research and years of traveling. Continental Shipping: All items will be shipped very promptly, usually using First Class Mail services, or Priority Mail if chosen. I will ship as soon as I can but visit the post office about 3 times a week. Items are shipped in plastic photo sleeves (very attractive durable hard plastic) and should not be bent or folded in transit. Items larger than photos are shipped in very heavy cardboard, while 11x14" photos and posters are shipped in sturdy poster tubes. Great care will be taken in packaging your winning item as these items are 1-of-a-kind! I will combine purchases on photos, and am very willing to work with you on shipping in anyway (Express, UPS, FED-EX, etc.) Delivery confirmation is usually purchased on all items and will be added into database when item is shipped.International shipping (Please read):International shipping is done using either First Class International mail or Global Priority Mail. On packages valued at over $50, Registered Mail will be used for even more security. Even though I am a quick and reliable shipper, it is very hard to estimate arrival to different countries. I will provide a scanned customs # that will prove the promptness in my shipping, and assure you that your item has been mailed. After that, we both just need to wait it out and be patient. Please understand that sometimes packages mysteriously take months due to customs (very rare, but happens). If you are an international buyer and not willing to work with me, please refrain from bidding as I will have scanned proof that I mailed your item promptly, but can not control the time it takes to get there. I have had difficulty several times in the past with holding packages (Italy, Spain, Mexico, Russian Federation), so please be aware a $12 extra charge will be added for Registered Mail for these countries. If you are buying from these places, please wait for invoice.
