Paul Newman  Check

Paul Newman Check

I worked as an assistant bookkeeper with my mother at Torno Lumber in Westport, CT, right out of high school (I graduated in 1972). Mr. Paul Newman came in and bought something at the hardware store and paid by check. Rather than deposit the check, my mother put the cash in the deposit and gave the check to me. I have kept it all these years. I am curious to see if it is worth anything.

Paul Newman
by: Bill

It was smart of your mother to keep that check. Signatures of celebrities a lot less famous than Paul Newman would have been worth more than $1-something.

Anything signed by Paul Newman is rare. He was cordial to his fans, but he almost always refused to sign autographs. There's a story on the web where he explains why he quit signing early in his career.

Dealers who find authentic autographs ask a lot for them, because they know it will likely be a long time before they get another one.

I have seen his bank checks list for almost $1000.

Thanks for the head's up Bill. I was thinking it might be worth a lot less.
