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:

We seem to have a new entrant to the MJ' drawings' market; 'traderuk7' from London, listing on ebay uk.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Michael-Jackson-Signed-Drawing-Autograph-...

Seller's own description is below:

I'm selling a total of 6 autographed artwork pieces hand drawn by Michael Jackson - the undisputed KING OF POP!
They have been valued at $1,000/£650 to $3,000/£2,000 each by a major auction house, but unfortunately I cannot wait so long until the next auction in a few months from now.  Hence, I'm selling them on Ebay and hoping they achieve a fair price.
Provenance...
They come from a fan club event in London, where MJ donated many pieces of signed art, albums and a fedora for the proceeds to be given to charity.  The pieces were won at this event and this was before MJ's untimely death, luckily they were very good value compared to their worth now.
The drawings were presented complete with a certificate of authenticity from MJJ Productions and EPIC MUSIC, also signed by Michael Jackson.  You will receive a high quality colour copy of this along with your autographed drawing.

A few days ago I found that a ripoff report had been created about the Simon Parr drawings now having PSA/DNA certs. The writer did not display the certs. The report accused both Chad B and Ballroom of having been part of giving opinions on these MJ's which never happened--however "David" accused them when he was here of the same. The report writer also stated they showed their purchases from Parr on our forum and that we told them they were not real. To date only one person has stated on our forum that they purchased some of these, and that would be Prashant (and he never displayed which ones). 

I started looking closer at the ripoff report lingo and looked up certain key phrases by on our own forum and found them repeated by a few other members. 

Previously we had removed a person 5 different times for spamming the forum as well as outrageous stories or accusations against other members or auctionhouses. All of these profiles involved MJ items. This person also tried to sign in as "Darren Jullien" at one point in time - with Darren's name spelled incorrectly.  

David's IP is the same as all of the following people who had been previously removed: (I have XX'd out the first 2 numbers).  David claims he is a rep for Simon Parr.

lisa tarbuck     XX.31.185.160
Darren Jullien     XX.31.185.160 (name spelled wrong)
rachel stevens     XX.31.185.160
Tracey Simpson     XX.31.185.160
kylie sanders     XX.31.185.160
simon parr     XX.31.185.160

I'm not surprised, although I had thought we had seen the last of this person awhile ago.

This person has caused quite a few problems on the forum before.  A few things to name some:

Creating an explicit discussion response about Elvis raping teenagers (this response was multiple paragraphs long)---they posted this response into any current discussion at random  (spamming the forum).  That account was completely deleted so all replies from the poster were removed.  

Claiming they were giving away MJ notes, then giving a real cell phone # for our members to text their info to.  The first person to post their info would get the lyrics.  Of course some poor person with that cell # had no idea who Tracey was.

Trying to claim they were Darren Jullien (spelling Darren's last name wrong).  Sending us a letter claimed to have been from Knaisz Auction all while spelling it Kaisez in the letter (as if Knaisz had forgotten how to spell their own name).

Trying to do MJ item trades - I deleted her contact info in that discussion as I did not want any member to send their MJ items and get nothing in return.

Here was one of their outrageous posts as Tracey  http://live.autographmagazine.com/forum/topics/michael-jackson-item...

Just bizarre.

Anonymous consumer "complaint" sites are a primary tool of the forgery industry to smear and discredit honest dealers, authenticators and collectors who have exposed them. Nameless, faceless cowards telling a litany of lies. They are not taken seriously by anyone with a modicum of intelligence or discernment.

And its why I didn't post the link - 1000% in agreement with you.

Heckuva job, Wascher!!!!

Pretty funny finding out Simon Parr was someone we had booted multiple times already.  I suspect David is actually female as most of his past fake profiles were women.

From Knaiszauctions on ebay, an 'initialled' ET sketch, selling with an ET box set and photograph ($1 start)

$1.00 doesn't seem like a bad price. I hope it stays there.

From the next 'Simon Parr' auction planned for 6th Feb 2016:

http://www.invaluable.co.uk/catalog/searchLots.cfm?scp=u&catalo...

Lot 7 Lisa Marie portrait (previously seen in Oct 15 so not repeated here) £600 start

Lot 29 Winnie the Pooh £500 start

Lot 30 Drawing of a boy (profile in red ink) £500 start

Lot 31 Profile of a man (black ink) £500 start

The red profile of a boy is very reminiscent of (ie a copy of ?) a red profile offered by Juliens in June 2012.  The man's head profile is reminiscent of a sketch previously seen at Bonhams in Jan 14.
