Madonna actually lived only a few miles away from where i grew up as a teenager. Our parents address was 3032 Cairncross,Roch,Mi.  She was older than me (unsure yr she graduated) but i graduated from Lake Orion HS in 1984, while friends just across the street went to Adams HS.

As a teenager 1st heard her song 'Borderline' on the radio @ Hollywood Beach,Fl (where family vacationed every winter) & we all immediately rooted for her being from hometown. i was listening to Black Sabbath-The Doors-Cream type music but still always appreciated her music & would listen too. even seen her black limousines whenever she was in town/Rochester & could've ran out to parking lots to get her autograph if wanted. 

About 10yrs ago me-my godson went to the Oxford,Mi Goodwill store & i found this autographed album. when first seen it (couldn't decipher the autograph) just figured it had to be Madonna's. as soon as we got home i googled her autographs- was surprised-knew it was orig.  i paid $1 for it.

Amazing!  How does a probably $2000 signed album wind up at Goodwill for $1?!  That may be worth even more.  Madonna cuts can go for close to $1000.  So a signed premium album is worth some coin.  Nice find!  Now that’s one local kid who made it big, huh?!

This is most definitely genuine. An absolute gem!!

I would say genuine as well and yet more proof positive that expensive items can be found for cheap cheap cheap

Nice find, congrats

Thanks to all for replying-confirming. Would really like to have it PSA'd in a nice protective case then framed nicely, but not so sure wanna get involved in the hassle of having ship it out to PSA California-sent back ect.

I do Love it! but sadly its not displayed- still not sure who to give/inherit it too.

As a side note, a couple months ago i went to an Estate Sale(Saturdays)that i knew was somewheres close to were Madonna lived in Roch. it was a WW2 Army Japanese couple that had lots of Adams HS signs-stuff. when i got home i researched where she actually lived (the house was For Sale) & it was directly across the street-was her neighbor!


Me-my brother moved in 1997 to 3039 Hixon rd,48306. off the beaten path dirt roads about 3-4miles from where she lived as a teenager-very close to where Bob Seger had a farmhouse in the 70's. Kid Rock grew up about the same 3-4 dirt road miles away in Romeo, and Eminem lives in a mini-mansion about 2dirt road miles away.

Those dirt roads might have some stories to tell!  It would have been cool to have known Madonna when she was in high school, having no idea this girl in your class was going to become a music/American/world icon!
