So what, did this collector pre-print the names of the mark on the paper they eventually signed? Each page has the name of the autographed celeb. which makes for a very nice standard format for a single collection.

Palace collection connects people to the past | collection, historical | newbernsj.com
Palace collection connects people to the past:
A scrapbook collected by Tryon Palace's first curator, Gregor Norman-Wilcox and his wife, Grace |
"The exhibit includes objects large and small, elegant and average that give view to some aspect of the past – some exploit, character or story.
“Our theme is the why, what and how of why we collect,” Packer said. “People make connections to the past through objects. We’re trying to tell interesting stories through the objects, which is why we have everything from a boat to furniture to architecture to silver.”"

Very rare "verbal" fortune-teller machin | Memories of the Old West that collectors want to own - World - NZ Herald News
rMemories of the Old West that collectors want to own - World - NZ Herald News:
"Truth was, until a few years ago, nobody, not even her owner, knew the non-functioning machine gathering dust in Bob's Place was an undiscovered treasure sitting in plain sight in this ghost town-turned-themed tourist attraction.
The 100-year-old fortune teller was an extremely rare find. Instead of dispensing a card like Zoltar, the Gypsy would actually speak your fortune from a hidden record player. When you dropped a nickel in the slot, her eyes would flash, her teeth would chatter and her voice would come floating from a tube extending out of the 2.5m-tall box."
