Movie Memorabilia and Autographed Sports Memorabilia Make Special Father’s Day Gifts

Are you looking for a very special gift for a very special dad? Play to his favorite activities with a gift of movie memorabilia or autographed sports memorabilia that he’ll appreciate for years. From movie posters of his favorite actors to celebrity autographs of his favorite sports stars, there’s bound to be a gift that your dad will love. Not sure what he’d like best? Here are a few suggestions to help you make your decision.
Star Wars Poster
You just know your dad would line up weeks in advance for a chance to pilot an X-wing fighter and he’s got a collection of Star Wars action figures hidden on a high shelf. If your mom teases your dad about his crush on Princess Leia and his friends refer to him as C3PO, you just know that he’ll flip over a Star Wars The Duel poster, featuring the moment when Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader face off with light sabers.
James Bond Movie Poster
If your dad has been known to intone, “Shaken, not stirred” and jokingly introduce himself as “Bond. James Bond,” you’re almost guaranteed to hit the right spot with a James Bond poster – or a collection of them. Many of the best entertainment memorabilia dealers put together unusual collections of memorabilia into one-of-a-kind movie memorabilia displays. How about a framed set of photographs of each of the James Bonds along with an autographed MasterPrint – with the signatures of each actor who has played the infamous Spy Who Loved Me.
Secretariat Photo
There’s not a horse lover alive that wouldn’t love a beautifully framed photo of Triple Crown winner, Secretariat. Add the signature of Ron Turcotte, the jockey who rode Secretariat to victory, and you’ve got a sure-fire hit gift. If Dad’s already got a Secretariat photo, why not add another horse to his collection – say, I’ll Have Another sprinting to victory in the Kentucky Derby. With his win at Belmont, I’ll Have Another is 2/3rds of the way to becoming the next Triple Crown Winner.
When choosing celebrity memorabilia gifts for dad, consider these guidelines to ensure you get him a gift he’ll love.
Choose sports memorabilia related to his favorite team.
Choose autographed sports memorabilia related to his favorite players.
Choose signed movie posters and theater cards from his favorite movies.
Choose celebrity autographs of his favorite actors in the roles for which they are most famous.
Why not give Dad a gift he’ll never forget for Father’s Day this year? Give him a gift of movie memorabilia or autographed sports memorabilia he can display and enjoy with pride.
