This cricket bat was signed by Ian Botham on May 19, 2023 in Cardiff. Botham was not only England's most dominant cricketer of the Eighties, but the country's leading sports personality. His most famous series came during the 1981 Ashes when he wielded his Duncan Fearnley bat to devastating effect, hitting 399 runs, including a sensational 149 not out at Headingly.
This item is supplied with a Certificate of Authenticity detailing when and where the product was signed. Our company number and details are included on the certificate.
Signing photo
The certificate for this product includes a photo of the sportspeople or celebrity signing one of the product line at the relevant signing session. For logistical reasons it is impossible to photograph every product being signed, but showing that the sportsperson or celebrity was present and signing items is, we believe, the best way to demonstrate the legitimacy of your products.
Numbered security hologram
Your certificate will come with a numbered security hologram, which will correspond to a matching, identically numbered hologram on your product. This ensures that the certificate can only be used to authenticate the item for which there is a corresponding number. If anyone attempts to remove either hologram it will destruct, so it is impossible to transfer the holograms to other items.

How do I know your items are genuine?
Authenticity is everything to us, and obviously it's vitally important to you as a customer. We ONLY sell products with original autographs, that have come from official signing sessions. We never supply copies, prints or facsimile signatures. Read about our authenticity guarantee.
What size is the shirt (or boot)?
We buy a selection of sizes (depending on availability from the manufacturer at the time), but we might be able to find a specific size if you want.
Can I make my order anonymous?
Yes, if you like. Just email or call us and we can send the packing note separately or not at all.
Are the football shirts you use official replicas?
Yes, we use the same shirts you would buy from a club shop. If the shirt is older (not in current production) we buy official "retro" replicas made by the authorised manufacturers only.
