Authenticity is Everything
My new Prince signed "Purple Rain" 12" Maxi Single from 1984
I had never seen these before. It's a 12-inch (album size) "Purple Rain" single on side 1 with "God" on side 2. The album is purple! These were released in 1984, I believe.
The cover is titled "Prince and the Revolution" and below that "Purple Rain". Prince signed it in purple, "Love Prince". I think both the "Love" and "Prince" look pretty good.
I have pics below.
I'm pretty excited. It's got the full Prince autograph, plus it's signed in purple on a "Purple Rain" 12-inch titled "Prince and the Revolution" from 1984.

I purchased a Tony iommi signed record that psa were passing, realesed from the record company and ended up getting my money back of the seller before he sent the item. I had to explain Tony told my friend ( bjarne) he didn't sign the 45rpms.

Here is a picture of Kathleen Pia's Prince autograph, which we deemed authentic, and btw, I think it is too. But note how elongated the "P" is. It goes across the whole body of the autograph, actually even further than mine. It's a little more upright than mine, but, of course, the P on mine had to be a bit more horizontal due to the placement of "Love".

Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying I'm convinced mine is authentic. I'm just posting a pic for comparison sake. I will have Roger take a look at it.

Thanks, Paul. Yes, I will ask Roger. If he rejects it, I think I will have a strong basis for requesting a refund. After all, the seller's store in North Hollywood guarantees authenticity for a lifetime.

I have to say, though, that some of those that were approved by Roger that Steve posted show a lot of variation. Some look horribly sloppy, whereas many real Prince autographs I've seen are very neat and nice to look at. Just look at the concert ticket that I posted earlier. It's a beautiful autograph - not like some of those sloppy ones that don't even closely resemble it.

Price has a really nice hand, no doubt, to me some of the pre cert do resemble prince quite a fair bit, although rushed. The surface can make a little difference being on a photo.
