Old Autograph Series
Would they use an old bat in a modern Test match?
There are a lot of old vintage bats being bought and sold by collectors, some costing thousands of dollars,of course they are not expected to be used but just hung on the wall to look at, what if, for example I had a bat that was used and autographed by Bradman or some other famous player, do you think I could get Ricky Ponting or Mike Hussey to use it in a Test match?
If they used it in the next Ashes series to score the winning runs would it make a difference to the value one way or another? Since the bat has only historical value if it got damaged or chipped in any way I dont think it would affect the value.
I don't think they would want to, as there is a big difference betwen the bats of yesteryaer and those of today. However, I take your point about a bat that had been used by Bradman, and then used by Ponting, increasing in value due to the men who have wielded it.

All About Autograph Collecting and Family History
Since the TV series “Rootsâ€, there has been a surge of interest in tracing family roots and history. Autograph collecting has been one of the avenues used to record this history. Now every other family seeks to have some kind of reunion once a year, every two years, or in rare cases every five years.
Many exchanges are made at these reunions including autographs. Other items may be collected such as old letters, birth certificates, wedding documents, and baptism records. Some of these reunions and family affairs such as weddings, anniversaries, graduations, and other special programs provide many different ways for those who are autograph collecting to get autographs. There are planned programs with pictures of participants and those who are being honored or remembered. These printed programs and pictures can be items used for autograph collecting. Some families maintain a scrap book with these signatures and pictures for reference information on the family.
How many times have you been to a family function and did not know all of the family who were present? Autograph collecting is a super way to get to know family and to have something to remember one by as a point of reference. If you are from a large family, autograph collecting may be the only avenue available to you to make some personal contact in a short period of time. Many collectors record information about the person on the back including date, place, and the relation.
When the person dies, the death date and cause of death may also be recorded on the back or somewhere close to the picture. Even before death, if you can record tidbits of information about the person, it may prove to be beneficial down the road. These tidbits of information may include the person’s profession, health information, interests and anything else important to family. If you use autograph collecting to its fullest, you may just become the family historian and be contacted from time to time for some of this information that you have gathered. This kind of autograph collecting records a lot of health information about the family in most cases.
Health professions have long known that the family blood line is the cause of many health problems. Rare diseases - like hemophilia, cystic fibrosis, and sickle cell anemia may have been in the family at one time. If you let your autograph collecting reflect family diseases, such as heart disease, cancer, and diabetes your time will be one of the best investments you could make. Tracing the illnesses suffered by parents, grandparents may help the doctor to predict your risk for having these diseases. In your autograph collecting some of this information can be recorded when it becomes available. Very few people take the time to look on the back of a photo. Nevertheless, in addition to the signature on the picture, you will find it worth while if you provide a tag under each picture with name, date, and activity. Again there is no doubt that this kind of autograph collecting is one of the most valuable and rewarding investments you can make as a collector. That information will satisfy the average browser.
