All of our autographs come from reliable sources, personal signings, or public signings. We also deal only with registered dealers. Everything we sell is genuinely hand signed by the person stated. Our small and motivated team will deliver upon our promise to provide you with the best quality, service and value for money. We are not a 'wannabe' outfit trying to make a quick pound before disappearing without a trace. We were here last year and the years before that, and we will be here next year and for the years to come - should you ever need us. It can be a scary decision when buying signed memorabilia online with the marketplace flooded with fakes it is very difficult to distinguish between genuine items that have the potential to increase in value and worthless counterfeits.
Absolute gem of a shop and the best place to get authentic autographs from a truely trusted source and also andy and the team put on great signing events making peoples dreams of meeting there all time favorite boxers come true whilest also making people feel as if they come as a customer and leave as a friend cant wait to visit again.

Stroll along a peaceful riverside road into secluded woodland gardens, to find a stunning 18th century interior design - and the principal art gallery for the borough of Richmond upon Thames. Orleans House has a rich and vibrant history, from the baroque Octagon room, which was designed by renowned architect James Gibbs, to a main gallery which hosts five temporary exhibitions each year - ranging from the historical to the contemporary.
If anything it’s even better after lockdown. The last time I visited the gallery at least eighteen months ago it felt a little unloved. It has since been beautifully refurbished adding a ground floor entrance lobby and a research room on the second floor with displays of objects associated with the 19th century explorer Sir Richard Burton. There’s nothing like a lick of white paint and the cleaning of the parquet flooring to liven up the ground floor gallery and first floor balcony where there is currently an exhibition of contemporary paintings and sculpture inspired by works in the Borough’s collection. The one-way system allows visitors to pass through the splendid Octagon Room a:deservedly popular venue for wedding receptions as well as visit the adjoining Stables Gallery (and cafe with outdoor seating) currently exhibiting works curated by Richmond Borough Mind around the subject of mental health.

Open Thursday, Friday and Saturday 11am-4pm this stylish purpose-built museum dedicated to the life and work of William Heath Robinson has become a focal point in Pinner's beautiful Memorial Park. Heath Robinson (1872-1944) was a renowned landscape artist, cartoonist, illustrator and social historian. Much loved as the "Gadget King" for his pictures of complex contraptions designed to achieve the simplest of outcomes, his work retains huge resonance with our modern world. With a rolling programme of themed Special Exhibitions complementing the main Heath Robinson Gallery, this beautifully-curated small museum is a must-see for all ages. A short walk from Pinner Tube (Met Line) with ample parking, make it a day out: enjoy the park with its tree-lined walkways, secure well-equipped children's play area, have a coffee overlooking the lake and visit shops, cafes and restaurants in Pinner's village and historic High Street . Changing temporary exhibitions run for three months.
Very pleasant museum with something for everyone, whether you are familiar with W. Heath Robinson or new to his work. Set in the green of Pinner Memorial Park, well worth a visit.

Whether you're shopping for gourmet game, homemade preserves or delectable cakes and patisserie, our award-winning market is all about fantastic food, a great atmosphere and a true sense of community. On the third Saturday of each month some 26 stalls offer the very finest fare, brought to you directly by farmers and artisans who are truly passionate about what they do - and all against the village-y backdrop of leafy Maple Road with its chic eateries and shops. Since it began in October 2009, Surbiton Farmers' Market has become an essential meeting point for the community as well as a great place to shop, while helping to raise more than £50,000 for local charities and good causes.
The thing about time passing? It adds confidence, self-belief, assurance. So it is with Surbiton's monthly Farmers' Market in Maple Road, on the third Saturday of each month. There are guest stalls, which adds variety and keeps it fresh, while the mainstays - including Ralph's deli (now also open as a shop), the fruit n veg, olives, bread, sausages, venison, goat... a good array. This has settled down into a firm fixture in the local community, with Surbiton town-centre shoppers diverted down St James Road to join in the hubbub. It tapers out towards the end, and does look a little ragged and forlorn once you've got past the main run of stalls (see picture), but generally it's an absolute gem - friendly, varied and filled with bargains. When he has them, the fish man's oysters are simply terrific.

Temporary exhibit of Chihuly's glass sculptures at the Gallery is phenomenal! All of them are so unique and different one from another; the variety of colors, intricate shapes and forms are beyond any reasonable imagination. I also loved the Gallery shop, where you can actually acquire a small Chihuly's glass sculpture, if you are ready to spare $$$$... but his works are worth every penny of their price tag.

Like Platform 9 ¾, Charing Cross Market is hidden away from the crowds but rewards those who want to be surprised, delighted and intrigued by all they find. Coins, stamps, postcards, militaria.... an Aladdin's cave of collectable treasures which only materialises on Saturdays.

Other than at the Royal Drawing School in Shoreditch this is, so far as I am aware, the only gallery space in London dedicated exclusively to drawing. And what an exhibition it currently offers! Around the theme of artist as medium or facilitator of a dialogue with the spirit world are displayed works by a range of artists from the last 250 years from Britain and the continent. Where else might one see in the same room works by William Blake, Victor Hugo (I thought he was an author rather than a printmaker) and Sigmar Polke, one of the few exhibitions at which one Is justified in lingering over virtually every work on display both in a single room and a library behind. At the front a bookshop with some works for sale both in browsers and framed on the walls. All very impressive and not what I might have expected off a side road between Elephant & Castle and the Old Kent Road flyover.
