WEST Wiltshire's Mr Christmas has offered a £250 reward after his trade-mark tinsel trimmed hat covered in star autographs was stolen in Melksham.
The hat features the autographs of some of the many famous people Andy Park, aka Mr Christmas, has met, including Bill Clinton, Chris Evans, Margaret Thatcher and Donny Osmond. There were also star pictures of TV entertainers like Ruby Wax.
Mr Park said: "It is priceless to me. I was on my way to sing and raise money for Comic Relief and just put it down in the Market Place for a moment.
"It was about 3pm on Comic Relief day, Friday March 14. I have reported it to police.
"No one else can use it because people will know where it came from. It is very upsetting, I have had that hat for 10 years."
Many of the signatures were collected during his many TV appearances including at the Brit Awards, GMTV, the Big Breakfast and news programmes.
Anyone with information about the hat's whereabouts can contact the Wiltshire Times on (01225) 352484.
