Showcase your Celine Collection

[mickaeldelacour]

ella award de 2004

[J-Man]

Cool find Mikael, but it annoys me that they say 20th anniversary... Céline has been active since 1981

 

No Davey, the 20th anniversary was for the society of singers. Not Céline.

 

Thanks for sharing Mickael.

[Davey84]

hahaha i thought it was for her anniversary

[Matej]

My copy is sealed so I'm going by what I can see on the cd case, but it's the duet version with Yuna Ito with the melody being changed just a little bit.

 

Nice item! I see Celine's Japanese solo version A World To Believe In: Himiko Fantasia, not a duet...

[Davey84]

My new additions!

 

Sorry for the long post, I found some stuff I haven't posted yet, so it's not only my latest additions

Platine magazine with Céline on the cover! So awesome to see those old photos and also the rumours back then about FIY!!

Argentinian Chansons D'Amour album, I got through HD WOW for only 4 euros, Japanese ACDS album, can you believe this only my SECOND cover ever of this actual album!?

Bee Gees One Night Only 2cd with Immortality live I got from my dad! and the Australian Tribute to Heroes with GBA.

Can anyone help me out here?! Is the version on this album the live edition and the one on the God Bless America album the studio recording!? Or was GBA not recorded in the studio at all??

C'est Pour Vivre single cover for only 2 euros, it was in better condition than the one i had...

Normal UK IACBTMN single and the Asian (Thailand?) single of MHWGO, the same Mickael posted. It's cool this one only has remixes and also printing inside the single cover!

The Une Semaine Avec Céline Gala, it was the week I stalked her in Paris! MEMORIES!!

And the USA Miracle box with a signed booklet by Anne and Céline, what do you think?

 

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v75/daveyh84/Celine%20Dion%20Collection/IMG_6503.jpg

Korean Unison cd, with a cool flap added to the booklet!

Brazilian Best of the Best Gold edition of ATW! And a Dance Promo of Sony Music Canada. I think they made a mistake cos it says feb 2002,

though 2003 is also mentioned on the cd, which of course is true.... Stupid Sony! It has the IDAN Hex Hector Extended Vocal Import Mix on it.

 

And the FIY cd has a funny story to it.... I saw this cd together offered from a seller from Australia. I thought they were the aussie versions, but it turned out that LTAL was the EU version and the FIY was the South African version! And that for only 2,50 aussi dollar!

 

And last but not least:

[Matej]

Nice items Davey! I just got these European CDs. Another release of Celine Dion album with clear (or transparent) inside cover and yellow CD, standard edition of D'elles album and German Best Of The Best Gold edition of The Collector's Series Volume One housed in slipcase...

What's with that "CCK..." catalogue code? I also have a few of these, but never knew what that "club edition" thing means! Canadian editions begin with "CK" but what's the purpose of "CCK" ?

[J-Man]

Woe, I love those cck CDs Davey! I don't have any of those

 

The signatures on the Miracle... Are you sure they're real?.... They look a bit suspect to me.

 

The unison with the extra flap is great. I always say: you can't beat a good flap.

 

All in all terrific stuff. And you're welcome megafriend.

I also got Mexican 'Miracle', 'SSDA', 'These Are The Special Times', 'Divas Las Vegas' CDs...

[Davey84]

Matej, that Celine Dion with yellow cd has been around for about 10 years now I think..

 

Jav, I think that the extra C could stand for Club?

 

Wow Igor, where did u find the TLTK??

[J-Man]

Love the LTK Igor. I saw it on eBay. It was pricey, wasn't it? But still jealous of ya!

[Javito]

Jav, I think that the extra C could stand for Club?

 

Yes yes, but what does that "club" edition mean or stand for?

[Davey84]

The Columbia House Company, now acquired by BMG Music from Sony, is the world's largest direct marketer of music, videos and DVD home entertainment product. With approximately 8 million offline and online club members in the United States and Canada, the company provides direct-to-consumer marketing of over 8,700 DVD titles and 8,000 music titles through its entertainment clubs. ColumbiaHouse is one of the premier e-commerce brands and consistently ranks among the Web's top 25 shopping destinations. Since its inception in 1955, Columbia House Company has a proven record of excellence in database marketing, market segmentation, credit screening and niche market merchandising.

I don't think they sell music anymore though:

I guess back in the day, when still loads of money was made by album sales, it was profitable to release an album with a special catelogue number for members of the Columbia House Members! Maybe it also had to do with the database marketing, market segmentation, credit screening and niche market merchandising; with a different catelogue number they could keep track better.

Well, I thought that it's 2008 SBME Special Markets re-issue (0886972948720), but not. Just Columbia second release (5099747150890), never mind!

[Leanne]

Hee!!

 

Do yo guys think this is a real autograph? I hope so and it look likes, but I don't know for sure. Most of you have more 'looks & knowlegde' on autographs.

Thanks!

 

http://img1.uploadplaatjes.nl/20120509/571091.jpg

[Thomas]

Yes it looks genuine.

 

I don't know how you identify real signatures versus pre-prints though, unless you try and wipe it off with solvent which would probably end badly. lol

[Leanne]

Hey Thanks for the answer! I bought it from somebody but it's real written with a marker. Edited May 9, 2012 at 06:13 PM by Leanne

[Javito]

Sorry but to me it looks fake I'm afraid She doesn't write the "C" like that and the rest of the handwritting has something suspicious to me, though I don't know how to explain it.

[Thomas]

She has done that kind of C before, here's a similar example a member from London posted during the TC tour, Celine signed her bag outside the hotel. It's hard to say 100% because if you look through the autograph topic in the TC tour section, there must be a million variations. Some with big C's, some with only half a C, some with sharp angles or really squashed up etc. Some of them in that topic you would say were fake, but they aren't. I think the only way to be completely sure is to get it in person or be lucky enough to get a response to a letter.

 

[J-Man]

With some autographs you can think they are fake, but Celine may just have signed if in a rush/ through a car window etc. I know if anyone looked at my signatures I've written through the years, there must be lots of variations. Many of them probably look fake even to me, and I'd have written them.

 

But personally the above signature clearly looks forged to me. It's very slanted towards the right. Celines signatures are always more straight and rounded IMO. And the Dion looks totally wrong.

Edited May 9, 2012 at 09:45 PM by J-Man

[Javito]

Yes she has some variations and she may have signed this in a rush, but there's something in the writing that its not smooth to me. Like John says, her handwritting looks rounded in all the letters. The "Dion" is not right to me either, but like I said, its the big "C" what looks worst: she always does the upper curvature with the short tail smaller than the inferior curvature, however in that autograph the upper curvature looks exaggeratedly BIG and widened... She never writes the C like that.

[Shamrock_1982]

I have to slightly disagree I have loads and loads of signed Celine stuff, a large majority of which I watched her do or her management sent me, and they differ greatly... I can always tell by the 'e' in Celine and the 'o' and 'n' in dion, and she always has three dots after her name and always has two dots above her first name. The C's differ, and sometimes she just signs her first name... it just depends I suppose, but 9/10 I can tell if its real or a good/bad fake...

 

Davey I have blown ur pic up to as big as it will go and had a really good look and is 100% real mate so njoy

Edited May 10, 2012 at 01:46 PM by Shamrock29

[Hilda]

The way celine writes her 'C's seems very hard to do - so closed off at the start of the C.

 

Darren Ive just watched the link to yr bday video! Happy belated birthday and great to put some faces to the names ive know for god knows how many years but have never seen - crazy!

[Shamrock_1982]

Thanks man

[Shamrock_1982]

So glad I got a job today, cos otherwise I was gonna sell my pride and joy... my signed Vegas stage piece, to pay to take my little boy on his first holiday to Spain.

I know that 5 exist that have been signed, but mine is the only one that was signed on the stage itself and not the plastic casing, which apparently makes it alot more, according to one of the dealers on a UK TV show...

[Javito]

Interesting! Also if she signed on the stage piece itself instead of the plastic, it will be protected by the plastic for many years

 

(Hope you have a great stay in Spain!! Where are you going? )
