Late 1968 Pink Floyd autographs (Gilmour, Waters, Wright and Mason).  Signed on a copy of The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn.

I don't like this.

Interesting Eric.  Is that a 'it's not really my cup of tea' or is it that you are not sure about the authenticity of the autographs?

Comment by Eric Keith Longo on February 12, 2016 at 2:14am

It can stop at "it's not my cup of tea". It may very well be authentic. There are some forms here I am not familiar with.

I defer to your knowledge of Floyd Signatures.

Ahh, personal preference, that's cool Eric, as everyone will have differing opinions on pieces.  Thanks.

Please don't defer to my knowledge, that would not be good :-)  I do like this piece and comparing it to early Floyd autographs (post Syd) they look good, though the pool of available material is very small.

What I can say is that it came from a great seller and has some good history.  Plus Roger Epperson has given it the OK.  Here's a copy of a newspaper clipping from the meet and greet session these were obtained at:

That's good enough for me. :)

Funnily enough they were my comments before I purchased :-)

I am interested though to hear what it is about this piece that doesn't float-your-boat, it's so great that everyone can express their opinions on pieces and I'm very keen to hear them, especially when they differ to mine.  To put my side across, what I like is: They are early signatures, they are all signed in the same pen, the placement of the autographs is pretty good (with no overlapping and very few contrast issues), they are all signed on the same side of the cover, they are not dedicated, there's a nice touch with an early version of Mason's 'Bubble' writing.

Took this one away from me Nate! Awesome piece and it's 100% authentic in my eyes. Congrats. Let me know if you ever want to sell it!

Thanks Corey, very kind of you to say so and apologies for the nab.  I'll be in touch if it goes up for sale.
