As a collector of records and music-related memorabilia, anything autographed is considered gold. And this is definitely true if it’s from an enigmatic French electro-pop duo that hasn’t released new music since 2013! Yep, I’m talking about Daft Punk. The Grammy Award-winning helmet-wearing icons who, for me, redefined house and EDM in the 21st century. I’m lucky enough to have gotten a signed poster from them!
I didn’t get them to sign anything myself, I’m too much of a wimp for that. I did, however, buy an autographed poster of theirs from a website called Poster Memorabilia. They specialize in signed movie posters, ranging from MCU and DCEU films to even classics like “The Godfather” and “Pulp Fiction.” And, as you’ve probably already surmised, they also have a great collection of music posters too. This range is also something else, including the likes of The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, AC/DC, Madonna, and even Adele!
I freaked out when I saw the signed poster of Daft Punk. I’ve always known them to be mysterious and aloof, the type who’d stray away from public life. Heck, I don’t even know what they look like under those damn chrome helmets. So you can imagine my surprise when I saw that some lucky fan (who probably works for this company) got them to sign the poster. Amazing! Once I saw it, I knew I just had to have it. It cost a ton of money, but I didn’t expect anything less from such a rare treasure!
Now, I have to admit, I became hesitant during the shipping process. I had to put up with waiting for it for around two-and-a-half weeks until I got it. The website does put up an estimated time of delivery, but even then, I wasn’t so sure about it. But you know what calmed my nerves? Their excellent service! Damn! Poster Memorabilia doesn’t play! They know that, especially with the pandemic going on, that customers who buy stuff online are often just nervous wrecks. We’re never sure when our packages will get to us. But in my experience with this company, they often kept me up-to-date as to when I should expect my poster.
I really appreciated that. Thanks to their emails and helpful customer service, I was able to receive my poster myself when the UPS guy finally came to my home. And the packaging was great too. The box kept everything secure and was sealed enough to protect my treasure inside. They really went all out, deserving of an A++ in my book!
Why the extra +, you might ask? Because the poster is also outstanding! Man, it looks so cool! The group’s logo all shimmery and metallic, the autographs—in bright yellow ink, no less!—looked legit, and the frame was good and sturdy. Let me tell you, when I finally got the damn thing out of the box, I instantly had goosebumps! It looked so cool, so sleek, and badass that I admittedly almost wet myself.
Oh, and if you’re asking if the autographs are legit, I believe they are. Poster Memorabilia did provide a certificate of authenticity, after all. But even without it, I still would believe that this was, 100%, signed by Daft Punk. I’ve seen my fair share of autographs from them, both from my friends who are also superfans of the duo to online research. I’ve memorized every stroke of their autographs and I’m confident this is legit!
This entire post may seem like one whole marketing ploy for Poster Memorabilia but I can’t help it! This website is the real deal! Not only are their posters authentic and high-quality, but their service is top-notch as well. You really couldn’t ask for more!
