Michael Palin is an English actor, best known for his work in the Monty Python series of movies and TV shows. Some of his movies include: Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Monty Python's The Meaning of Life, Time Bandits, and A Fish Called Wanda. As of 2021, he is still alive at the age of 78!

Important Added Info: This index card has been personally autographed (signed) by Michael Palin (he wrote a long humorous inscription, referencing that our consignor was from Wisconsin, and emphasizing that he is NOT!). The index card could be matted with a vintage or repro still and framed together to make a cool display!

Note that this autographed item is part of a remarkable collection. In each of our last several all-signed auctions, we auctioned hundreds of items from this collection and now we are auctioning 55 signed index cards (plus 209 signed photos and miscellaneous other signed items that have a different note on those)!
     In the 1970s, our consignor was a teacher who taught a film class, and he also part-time ran the local movie theater (and he saved all the presskits from the movies the theater showed).
     Starting in the late 1970s through the late 1980s, he wrote to famous celebrities, and enclosed an 8x10 from his collection (or sometimes a different size photo or other item), and he wrote a literate personalized letter, talking about his work as a film teacher, and discussing his favorite movie by that star.
     See our other note with the 209 signed items from this consignor for more about how he acquired them. But in additional to sending photos and other items with images of the star, he would also enclose an index card, and mention that the star could sign the index card if they didn't want to sign the photo. He found that many, many stars would sign both! This auction is for one of 55 index cards which he received back from the celebrities who he had written to.
     He of course does not have any "Certificates of Authenticity", but he only kept ones he felt were surely authentic, and those are the ones we are auctioning. However, bidders can certainly compare the signatures to known examples on the internet to judge for themselves.

As is true of all the signed items we are currently auctioning, we give every buyer 30 days in which to review what they purchased and they can return any item as long as it is within 30 days of the end of the auction. On non-signed items, we give a "lifetime guarantee" on everything we auction, but on signed items, we give the above modified guarantee of 30 days after the auction closes.
