Michael Jackson drawings (Miscell inc. 'Historic portraits' and 'Disney characters')

I'm noticing a sudden influx of MJ signed Michael Jackson drawings coming on to the auction market, which seem to share the common themes of either 'portraits of historical figures' or 'Disney characters'.

Both of these themes are of course recognised from Michaels' drawings both at a young age and later in life, but it is interesting that so many new drawings are being released on to the market at the same time.

Here are some current examples:

The red Chaplin was sold by Cooper Owen for £2800 in March 14.

And another Christmas Tree.

(check out the rest on that linked page--same signatures) And the thing I find most interesting, is not one of the i's in Michael is an upstroke into the i first (and they contain a distinct c and h) And everyone thinks they are bad on this page that is discussing them. Every one of the Loves on that page is wrong too. I also know that Michael made his capital N's in ONE stroke, it was thoroughly discussed in the Bush forum as well.

Someone says at the bottom that Jason Makris is responsible for these... the link to the page however does not work.

Very interesting; thank you for this helpful information.

Well I'm not so sure if its helpful or not.

I re-read it and it looks like she says only the top item is something he is responsible for, want to clarify that as I truly have no idea who or what Jason is about.

And here is a new Blue Chaplin, very like the red Chaplin and the blue Disney. This 'Blue Chaplin' is currently for sale on ebay. Provenance is given as 'originally obtained from Michael's cousin Tim Whitehead in 2007'. This is on 18ins x 12ins paper and is Epperson authenticated.

Who cares what is written on that other site? that does not in any way dictate or affect what is discussed here.

Dog breeders cannot be experienced autograph collectors? Only those who charge authentication fees are experts? Roger I agree with. JSA/PSA what a joke. They should have stuck with baseball stuff.

Kind of funny post though.

Exactly....Are'nt Authenticators just "Opinion givers"?? Some people really don't think before they speak.

learn to to distinguish between expert opinion and non-expert opinion, this discussion is now on higher level.

Some people really forget to take their pills.

Please tell me what warrants an Expert Opinion and a non Expert Opinion.......as Respectable as Roger is, even he has admittedly passed signatures for MJ that have ended up being not likely genuine (see KRM78 auctions discussion) and has offered an Erick LP for sale on his website. Even THE BEST in the industry don't get it right 100% of the time....so please enlighten me on EXACTLY WHAT warrants someone to be considered an expert?
