I have prints of CBS stars from the 50's, 60's, and 70's hanging in my office.  One fell the other day, and when I picked it up, I noticed that it was autographed in pencil by Red Skelton.

I'm not a big autograph guy, but I had to get this signed in San Deigo last year:

Original hardcover Silver Surfer:Parable signed by Stan Lee and Moebius. If I'd have been on the ball Mark Chiarello (the colorist and current DC art director) was there also.

I have one of these, mine is #1487:

My parents bought it for me on a family vacation to Disney World.  I rememeber there was all of a sudden a comic book store set up in the middle of one of the parks.  They had one version signed by Romita Sr, I wanted The Man.

Comics: I have my hardcover of Kingdom Come autographed by Alex Ross. I think I surprised him because 1) I was the only one in line with one item and I asked him to sign it to me! and 2) I had seen him earlier at someone else's booth and didn't ask him to sign it then (he was "off duty" as far as I was concerned)  and I think he recognized me from the booth.  I have a few comics that George Perez signed for me. Sam Jones autographed some photos and a nice Flash Gordon poster for me.

Non-comics: I have several records and photos autographed by (to me) by club/hi-nrg singer Ernest Kohl. I've met him a couple of times, and was amazed that he remembered me from year to year. I also have a cd that I got signed by comedian Kate Clinton. I've got a few other celebrity autographs - - photos from back when I wrote fan letters and actually sent them thru the mail! A few signed photos bought off eBay, but I wanted the photo more than the signature. (I hate to say it, but if it isn't signed to me, or I didn't get the autograph from meeting the celebrity, it doesn't mean much.)

Not many autographs for me, but the few I have I am fond of.

An autographed picture and card of former St. Louis Cardinals catcher Tom Pagnozzi. (one of my favorites)

Autographed 2006 World Series ball signed by MVP David Eckstein. (Really nice guy!)

The big prize to me (although he was a Yankee) is the autographed poster I have of Mickey Mantle.  I met him about 18 years ago at an expo in Atlanta and he was signing autographs for a few hours.  I had the poster framed and it is hanging in my "den".
