You're Top Poster: #5  | I only have one book signed by the author and that was Lord Davies, but I do have two books with letters from the author about the book and why they wrote it. What I also have is an interesting collection of bookmarks left in books, one of which was a x-ray of a skull with a bullet clearly seen in the brain!

You're Top Poster: #4  | I've got that one too. And a signed book of BoB pilots i got at duxford. Not going to scan it though as it would require bending the spine back to a frightening degree. Course, i could just start posting up the photos of my signed aviation prints
