A "crossing the line" certificate that my grandad got on HMS repulse. It's unusual because the future Edward VIII was on board and so it's decorated with the prince if Wales' feathers.

 

[Titanic]

An unsigned copy of "Mad Man".

 

[The Sock of Poskett]

A signed photo to me from Groucho Marx. Me and a mate got heavily into Marx Brothers films when we were at school and noticed he was in a particular Beverley Hill hospital so wrote to him there, and forgot about it. Three months later, two large envelopes arrived with signed photos. Class act, even in his final years.
