I think I'd reach out to Juliana on the provenance letter too (if you can find her), just to be sure she actually wrote the letter.  I say this because I have seen a lot of letters very similar to this in MJ forgeries (usually from dead people who can't respond though).  But if she's alive I'd reach out to her to be sure she actually did consign the item or wrote the letter. 

Good luck on everything :)

Looks like facsimile autographs or autopen or preprinted IMO

I advise you not to buy it.

The Letter doesn't prove a thing. It only proves that a father wanted to make is 7-8 years old daughter happy. A 7-8 years old girl would be happy with a photo which bears even a preprinted autographs. Every Father knows that

Daniel,

I've never seen a preprinted photo like that, have you? Nor am I aware of any facsimile or Autopen examples that match the signatures. Are you?

There certainly could be some I'm not aware of, so if you know of any, please post them. But it's rather unlikely new ones would be discovered after 50 years.

Thanks

I take my words back. After looking and checking it again, it may be authentic. Hard to tell

If it's real it's a great piece!! If they will guarantee it go for it, if you win then have it properly checked!

Good luck

Paul you must be excited, it looks a special piece! If they guarantee it your money safe,you can get one of the experts to COA it, if they say it's no good you can return it, worst case is the cost of the COA and stress and time lol

Good luck, won't be cheap though! Let us all know what happens

I just got off the phone with sothebys.after a lengthy discussion about the piece with there rep.I Told them my dilemma, basically that it didn't have a coa.they told me that they guarantee the piece to be real. If not then a full refund.they also said that tracks has seen the piece,and they absolutely have signed off on the piece as very genuine.he then said to me that if I win the piece,I would be able to get a tracks coa through them if I would like.that makes me feel alot better about this whole situation. 

I now hope that I don't get into a bidding war with someone.I'll let you guys know what happens in about 2.5 hours or so.
