Elvis Presley (1935 – 1977) was one of the most iconic and influential performers of the 20th century, known to his fans simply as "The King".
As one of the originators of rock and roll, he created a music style which changed the world and inspired generations of artists from the Beatles to the present day.
Presley remains the best-selling solo artist of all-time, with estimated record sales of 600 million.
Today millions of fans from around the world visit his former home of Graceland in Memphis, Tennessee, and rare items of his memorabilia regularly sell for tens of thousands of dollars at auction.

Bert Lahr signed photo as the Cowardly Lion in The Wizard of Oz
£9,950.00
- A rare Bert Lahr autographed photo depicting him as the Cowardly Lion in The Wizard of Oz
Bert Lahr (1895-1967) was an American stage and screen performer, best-known for his role as the Cowardly Lion in the timeless classic The Wizard of Oz.
Lahr began his career as a vaudeville performer on the Columbia Burlesque Circuit, and worked his way up to starring roles on Broadway, before heading to Hollywood in the 1930s.
He featured in several films before landing the part of the Cowardly Lion in the 1939 MGM musical, starring alongside Judy Garland, Ray Bolger and Jack Haley.
During filming, Lahr was known to ad-lib lines, causing numerous re-takes as his co-stars burst out laughing. When later asked by reporters if he was worried about being typecast, he replied, "Yeah, but how many parts are there for lions?"
Lahr returned to the stage later in his career, co-starring in the 1956 US premiere of Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot, and winning the 1964 Tony Award for Best Leading Actor in a Musical for his role in Foxy.
This vintage 10 x 8 photograph features Lahr in his full Cowardly Lion costume, and is strikingly signed "To Vickie, with love, Uncle Bert" at the top of the image in blue ink. The recipient was Lahr's niece Vickie Arthur.
Lahr was an infrequent signer of autographs during his life, and signed photographs of him in his most iconic role as the Cowardly Lion are highly rare.

Nelson Mandela (1918-2013) was a South African politician, anti-apartheid revolutionary and philanthropist, who spent his life battling racial injustice.

Sold out- A 4.75 x 3 inch album page signed by Albert Einstein in 1925, during a lecture tour of Argentina
- The autograph appears alongside others by several Argentine intellectuals, including Mauricio Nirenstein and Jorge Duclout
Albert Einstein was one of the world’s greatest scientific minds. In the early 1900s he developed the Theory of Relativity, which remains a key tenet of modern physics. A German citizen, he left the country shortly before Hitler seized power and never returned – choosing instead to spend the rest of his life in America. He was instrumental in developing the first atomic bombs in the 1940s, in spite of his lifelong commitment to pacifism.
Einstein travelled widely in the early 1920s, visiting countries in Asia, Europe, the Middle East and the Americas.
In 1922, the University of Buenos Aires invited him to give a series of lectures on relativity. Einstein accepted and made the long journey out three years later, in 1925. He was warmly received in Argentina and gave a number of interviews with the press on a range of subjects - including politics, pacifism and Judaism.
Einstein signed this album page during this month-long trip. His autograph appears in the centre, surrounded by signatures from various Argentine intellectuals.
It’s a beautiful specimen, accompanied by PSA authentication and extensive information on his time in Buenos Aires.
Einstein is among the most sought after signatures on the market. In 2017, a note he signed for a Japanese courier sold for a world record $1.5m.

Sold out- A superb early signature from Walt Disney (circa early 1930s)
- Presented in an attractive wooden frame with an original print from a 1930 photo shoot advertising the first Mickey Mouse toys
- Also featuring a good copy of an illustration from a 1937 pamphlet (the original is also included)
Walt Disney (1901 – 1966) was a celebrated voice actor, animator, film producer and entrepreneur who became an American cultural icon. Having founded the Disney Brothers Cartoon Studio in 1923, Disney rose to fame with the creation of Mickey Mouse and became a household name across the world.
As a producer he pushed the boundaries of animation, releasing classics such as Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Pinocchio, Dumbo and Fantasia, along with the Oscar-winning Mary Poppins. Disney holds the record for the number of Academy Awards won by an individual, having won 22 Oscars from 59 nominations. In 1955 Disney also established Disneyland, the most successful theme park ever built, which to date has attracted more than 650 million visitors.
Walt Disney's films have entertained millions of viewers, influenced generations of film-makers, and Walt Disney Studios remains the most famous and successful entertainment company in the world.
This is a rare example of Walt Disney’s autograph from the early 1930s. His signature evolved over the years. By the end of the 1930s, he’d jettisoned the flourish you can see under this example.
Disney's autograph has been synonymous with the company he founded since 1985, when a stylised version was incorporated into the logo.
Renowned Disney expert Phil Sears has authenticated this signature. His certificate accompanies the piece.
The original 8 x 10 inch portrait at the top was taken during a photo shoot for a new line of Mickey Mouse toys in 1930. Seamstress Charlotte Clark produced these dolls in a small rented house close to Disney’s studios in Los Angeles, California. They were handed out as gifts to studio visitors. By 1932, the design had moved into mass production.
The cartoon at the bottom is a good reproduction of an illustration from a pamphlet (titled Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck and all their Pals). The original pamphlet accompanies the piece. Presented in a beautiful 26.5 x 18.5 inch wooden frame with attractive bordering.

Charlie Watts signed photo
£495.00
- An early and superb 1964 signed photo by Rolling Stones drummer Charlie Watts, with terrific provenance.
Watts has signed “Love Charlie Boy” – his typical autograph – in blue ballpoint pen across a 4.8 x 3.5 inch, previously unknown, black and white photo.
Charlie Watts (1941-) has been the Rolling Stones’ drummer since 1963. A revered figure by musicians and music fans alike, Watts is widely regarded as among rock’s greatest drummers.
The 4.8 x 3.5 inch photo was taken backstage at the Brighton Hippodrome on Sunday July 19, 1964 – just seven days after the Stones had their first #1 single with It’s All Over Now.
The Stones were headlining a bill that included Kenny Lynch and Marty Wilde.
The photographer was a teenage journalist for amateur magazine Teen Topics.
Watts signed the photo on the Stones’ next visit to the Brighton Hippodrome, on Sunday October 11, 1964, when the journalist again was permitted access to the band backstage.
Photos of the Stones in their early years are highly sought after, as are their signatures. Capturing the two together makes this a hugely rare piece.
It comes directly from the amateur Teen Topics journalist, with a detailed letter of authenticity from her. Good condition.
