The KCS??? numbers below are mounted on a smaller 8.5" x 5.5" descriptive album page that is in a heavy poly holder punched to fit a standard 8.5" x 5.5" 3-ring binder. There are three types of autographs = signed photos, signed signature cards, and clipped bookplate signatures. The bookplate sigs were originally obtained to affix to limited edition copies of interviews with the subject, to affix to copies of books the subject had written, and to affix to limited edition prints. Most of these items were obtained either through the acquisition of large collections, during interviews with the subjects, and at various reunions and shows. All are authentic and all are hand-signed. Click here to return to the large album pages. These items are not in alphabetical order, but rather in inventory order. Once all of these items have been posted, I will be doing an alphabetical listing that indicates the inventory number.
