Treasure hunters: Paul and Linda McCartney autographs, Hornby train and Gene ...
Q Many years ago I met Paul and Linda McCartney when he was filming the 1984 film Give My Regards To Broad Street.
I was one of the first to meet them both before word got round who was filming, so I collected their autographs on my school book. I have put this in an A4 photo frame with some photographs on cards from the film. Are they worth anything? - Jonathan Mark Smith, by email
A this film yielded a hit record but the film itself didn't set the box office on fire.
However, Paul McCartney remains one of the world's biggest celebrities and his autograph is still popular.
It would be worth noticeably more if across a fine photograph of his days in The Beatles, but as this is a piece of paper, we are looking more at the £300 to £400 mark here.
Q I Have a Hornby train in excellent condition and in its original box, complete with instructions.
It is a clockwork tank passenger set No 41 Gauge 0 (40028) with the engine, three carriages and complete track. Can you give me an idea of what it may be worth and who I should contact if I want to sell it ? - Mandy Simpson, Chalfont St Peter, Bucks
A frank Hornby founded the world-famous Meccano toy company in 1901. In the early 1920s, he produced a clockwork train set to rival the famous German makers such as Marklin.
Your set should still have the Hornby guarantee slip and an application for membership form. The set is a three-railed 'O' gauge model. Serious collectors go where the serious money is... and that's Hornby's 'O' gauge sets.
These were very accurate sets, the track being 1.25 inches apart. Prices for basic train sets like yours or locomotives begin at around £150 for good condition, boxed models.
Q I Have a jacket which belonged to Singin' In The Rain star Gene Kelly and am wondering as to its value.
It was a personal item of his and not worn in any of his movies as far as I know. It comes with a letter of authenticity. - Debbie Macpherson, by email
A gene Kelly is one of the most famous stars of 1940s Hollywood. The photos you sent suggest this item has been stored well and was purchased from a charity auction with stars donating lots.
The letter does support the item well. This would be of much greater interest if it had been screen worn in a classic picture of his.
However, items worn by stars in their day to day life are still highly sought-after, especially if worn by even more iconic stars such as McQueen, Monroe, Dean, Elvis and a handful of others.
