Autographs of celebrities like Sir Paul McCartney and Princess Diana are safer assets than stocks or savings.

Ten years ago, the former Beatle's signature was worth 125 pounds but now fetches more than 1,500 pounds.

According to the GB Rarities Index, others soaring in value include Princess Diana's (up more than 600 per cent from 1,200 pounds to 8,500 pounds) and George Harrison's (175 pounds to 2,250 pounds),

GB Rarities Index also shows that stamp collections rose in value by nearly 40 per cent in 2007-2008.

"People see autographs as something tangible," the Sun quoted Stamp specialist Stanley Gibbons, behind the index, as saying.

I have a fan club card signed by Sir Paul before the Beatles were famous. I had
a Liverpool pen pal who used to go to the Cavern to see them. Any idea what this
card might be worth?
