I'm not an expert on Dead autographs, but if you compare the autograph in the book with the autograph that I have on my home page, I will say that this autograph is not genuine.

The autograph on my home page is signed in person for me in 1990. And I have never seen a Garcia autograph like the one in your book.

Let's see if others agree with me or if they think I'm wrong.

here is my story:  The Grateful Dead came out with this book in 1983 and it was published by Quill, a division of William Morrow Publishing in New York City. My father, Allen Marchioni, was the President of William Morrow and knew that my sister and I were huge Deadheads. He was able to get two copies of the book, signed by the entire band, and also signed by the editor, Paul Grushkin. This book is signed by all band members, Jerry Garcia, Bob Weir, Phil Lesh, Bill Kreutzman, Mickey Hart and also Brent Mydland. (As you may know, Jerry and Brent are no longer with us on this Earth, Rest in Peace). I have owned this book for over 30 years, and would now be interested in selling it. It has been looked at ALOT ! The cover shows wear. There are a few pages that are loose and come free from the binding....unfortunately, the autographed page is one of the pages that has come loose. I am sure it could be professionally rebound. I also have a copy of a page from a letter written by the Editor, Paul Grushkin. Underlined you will see it says that "the band hopes that Al's daughters will enjoy the two signed copies". I am looking to get valuation/sell this now.  Can i get any guidance please?  Joel, can  you let me know what you think?  THanks much, Mary
