My friend in Zurich has this signed Hendrix 45, it's a German pressing of "Purple Haze". He is not an autograph collector and got this sometime in his 40+ years of record collecting. The signature…Continue

Is this an authentic Greta Garbo autograph? It looks rather atypical to me also for the lengthy inscription but it does have a vintage feel. I am not a Garbo expert, but someone here must be.…Continue

This was presumably signed by the Stones on their second US tour. I have some doubts, especially for Bill and Charlie, though the others look good to me. But look at the backcover with the other…Continue

"Here is my PPM, gold mono pressing, signed on April 14th 1963 at Thank Your Lucky Stars GTV show in Teddington/Middlesex, the same day, the Beatles met The Rolling Stones for the first time."
"The comparison certainly puts a somewhat different complexion on things. I had been very put off by the "Jimi" in the OP but these two Jimi's are pretty similar. "
"I will ask my friend, if he remembers more on the provenance. But I know, he's not into autographs and guess he would only have added - say - 50 francs to the regular vinyl collector prize."
"I think think the size is nit unusual in relation to the sleeve, and as it's a 45 it's not a particular large signature."
"Thanks Ballroom! In fact there are a similarities."
"Here’s a signature from the signing along with the 45 signature."
"I wouldn't say there are no real serious concerns about the signature (see also Eric's comments below) but the background to the piece gives more hope that it is OK. A lot depends on whether your friend did just get it by chance as a…"
"It appears that when these letters are of the same size there are more of them as in "Jimmy"*early) or they are not cursive. Are the slants correct?"
"Also is the size of the signature on a 45 the unusual?"
"I'm sorry - I meant the signatures at the website "Groovy Handwriting" - yes, I was speaking to the 45.
Groovy Handwriting"
"The "stay groovy" signature is "waterproof", but I think you are referencing to the 45-sleeve?"
"That's exactly what I thought and what leads me more to a genuine signature because there are no real serious concerns in the signature itself. To me, the handwriting looks a bit "square" however, but just a bit:-) The feltpen looks…"
"I was looking at Stay Groovy - the letters after "J" should be descending in height, no? That what was stuck out to me. The shape and form of the "imi"."
"Hi Sam, nice to get some Hendrix activity again on the AL site.
I'm not at all convinced by the autograph but if this really was sold to your friend just as a cheap record and not as an expensive autograph you have to ask yourself who but Jimi…"

- Hello Sam,
So you got the Imagime album. I was a day late and a dollar short. Just kidding. If you get tired of looking at it, I know a guy in the UK that would love to have it.
I just purchased the Bernd Imagine poster.
The Lennon white album photo I need $8000 USD. Sorry for the high price but, I paid dearly for that photo.
Thanks for the inquiry.
