I can't comment on the autographs as I have minimal knowledge of Nirvana.  But I'm not necessarily sure that 13 bids means there's little interest.  If this is legit, bidding could erupt in the final minutes or seconds of the auction.

I personally don't think it is authentic the kurt seems to neat and although ive heard of a few with the peace sign from the early days  I have never seen one of his later signatures with one the David grohl looks weird to me and I have no idea why someone would have coutney love sign it instead of chris (the ad says it s kurt dave and countney ) if it had been signed by chris he would have signed it krist by 1993

 

Again that's my thoughts it's most likely a case of a good dealer being screwed over by a trusted supplier or getting this in a batch of items from someone who may have bought this his other items seem real to me just don't like this one

i dont think its genuine, at least thats my opinion on it. Nirvana is very hard to authenticate, but i would not bid on this item.

This is not genuine and sadly someone paid 400 GBP for it.

Thanks for helping guys, because I know way to little about these signatures! The seller is a member here, hopefully he will comment.

Just noticed this thread. Dave Grohl signed in two different ways, sometimes he signed David "which is what he usually does these days" and back then he also sometimes signed items Dave. Hence the difference in this signature where he signed Dave.

Kurt not always signed with the Peace sign, he did this on certain occasions but I'm not sure why this was. I was told by a Nirvana collector that the other signature was by Courtney Love, he mention to me that back then Krist and Dave weren't big fans of Courtney so that could be the reason how Krist never signed because she signed the item.

Yes Dave Grohl did signed his name as "David", :Dave" and the most recent with a double "DD". 
Any autograph with a doodle of Peace Sign or Smiley Face signed by Kurt Cobain is mostly fake. Although I have seen an authentic Peace Sign signed by Kurt Cobain at a press conference in Singapore in 1992.





The other autograph on the CD booklet is suppose to be Chris. Chris signed his name "Krist" when In Utero was released. It is not Courtney Love autograph. 

This signed In Utero CD Booklet is not authentic.
