I just got these two cards back via a send-in from a private signing that Official Pix did with Christie Brinkley. It was pretty much a no-brainer to participate in this signing. Autograph + 80's icon is an automatic custom card-on for me.
I've made 3 cards featuring Christie, one as a part of the ongoing Dream Girl set, and two within the Vacation set. I chose the two pictured above to send in. It was a toss up between the two Vacation cards. The other is the iconic shot of Christie in the Ferrari, but I chose the hotel swimming pool scene card with the idea that the upper left corner left a lot of space to really showcase an autograph.
The Dream Girl card is the first of the sixteen "official" DG cards that I've gotten signed. There's a few rouge Dream Girl cards out there however that were done as commissions that have been inked.
Another thing that really appealed to me about this private signing was discovering upon some research how clean Christie's autograph is. I was confident the cards would turn out great. For Official Pix's part these two cards were signed exactly as I requested them to be, plus they put a nice holographic COA sticker on the back. I'd highly recommend their service if you're an autograph collector.
