The Authentic Experience
I don't know the details or exact price. You can Google. I don't spend as much time writing the stories as I used to when I was paid.
But, an auction of Elizabeth Taylors furniture and other items, included a photo he signed to her. It had an inscription with her full name, and something about him loving her so much. They expected a few thousand dollars for it, and it got in the 6 figures. BAFFLING, as an autographed 8 x 10 of Michael sells for so much less. Now, one thing if it was a photo of them both, signed by both --
Strange.

Comment by mike aring on December 23, 2011 at 8:00pm good god.. i would take the estimated price each for a couple of items that i have to sell...
Stephen, good point!
Our local paper covered this story in full but they left this part out. This story reported here is much more shocking to me. We all knew that the diamonds would fetch millions of dollars but a signed photo of Michael for over $140,000! Here is the story that ran for those that want to read it.

Who has that kind of $$ these days? WOW!
Comment by Steve Cyrkin on December 17, 2011 at 5:06pm A Bob Dylan publicity poster signed and inscribed to Liz went for $80,500 in the same auction.

I think the Dylan was the better value, seeing that he's not much more likely to sign another poster again as Jackson is.
Comment by Steve Cyrkin on December 17, 2011 at 5:03pm Josh, Christie's just sold it for $146,500. Higher than any have brought on eBay I believe...:)
