"Steve, I keep getting a "sorry that upload won't work" when attempting to upload the image...It (and the next two I'd send) are small, i.e. 1mb or less. I'm not sure why though I use Zone Alarm Extreme and it can be a bit of…"

"Hi Steve...thanks for the welcome. Though I mentioned my areas of expertise the item I'm researching is only tangently in my area. It is a 78 RPM opera record. As a collector I know that in general, it's rare that a 78 has any great value.…"

About Me

What brings you to Autograph Magazine Live?
I was advised by an auction house that Autograph Magazine was a good place to start in my search for confirming an autograph. I am primarily a collector but sold antiques 1970s-80s and personally specialize in rare recordings (both buying and selling). However, as a favor to someone who has moved into a retirement home and is aged 90, I visited and evaluated their 78 RPM recordings with the caveat that value was typically very little. The majority of the recordings were, indeed, of little value though in excellent shape...but one caught my eye and I am looking for some answers about the value of the item.

Collector
What do you collect, or want to start collecting?
Books/Literature, Music
Tell us more about your collection, specific areas of interest, etc.:
I have a vast collection of recordings covering a variety of genres...also many books and a houseful of antiques.
What is your level of expertise?
Intermediate Collector
What is your favorite autograph in your collection?
Not sure where to start on this topic but collection is heavy on 60s popular music, jazz, avant-garde and a plethora of other genres...with many items inscribed. I have conspired with a well-known1960s counter-culture individual to have him write a single poem across 15 books, records, cds, and postcards, one line per item. Once I pass on and my collection redistributed...future collectors will need to track down all of the items to complete the signature set! I also have several items by American visionary folk artists from the South...most signed, or inscribed.
Why do you collect?
No explanation for that other than it gives me great pleasure...I started my first collection while still a pre-teen, circa 1961.
You can ask anyone living or dead for their autograph. Who would it be?
Jimi Hendrix
