Welcome to The Autograph Hut!
Hi, my name is Jay, I am a Sophomore in High School, and I am the creator of this web site. I created this site for two main reasons: 1.) To share my successes and knowledge of autograph collecting, and 2.) To show off my collection. I have collected autographs since the summer of 1999. But, I did stop collecting from February 2000-March 2001. That's why there are not many successes from this time period.
Autograph collecting is my number 1 hobby and I cherish every success I get back. I AM NOT WILLING TO SELL OR TRADE ANY OF MY COLLECTION. My other hobbies are playing on my computer, and playing basketball. Some of my favorite teams are the Los Angeles Lakers, Minnesota Vikings, New England Patriots, and the Seattle Mariners. Most of my autographs were sent out to the player through the team he/she played for at the time. Some of my autographs were sent out to players home addresses. In that case, I will post the address so you can also contact the player. I've included a scanned picture of every autograph that I get back. I am not guarantying that every autograph on my site is authentic. I am not guarantying that any player will sign for you, either. I send about 10-20 requests a week to various baseball players, basketball players, football players and coaches. All WNBA successes will be listed under basketball successes. Thanks for visiting my site, and be sure to look at my Links page. It contains many more autograph related web sites. Please take the time to vote on my poll and sign my guest book. Both can be found at the bottom of this page.
