Jim Morrison “Signed” The Lords and the New Creatures - $7,500+

This is currently on eBay with a starting bid of $7,500. The signature doesn’t look authentic to me and appears to have been copied using the authentic second signature as an example. What do you think?

Maybe I'm in the minority here but, with a signature of this value, why wouldn't the seller have it authenticated? Seems that would be extra money in the bank.

I have a lot of reasons I dont get stuff certed, but one of the bigger ones has to do with the cost of shipping and insuring high end collectibles, not to mention the stress and anxiety of trusting the carrier to not lose or destroy it. If I was local to one of the majors, maybe…

We ship a lot out for our home business. Mostly 1st class with tracking now, sometimes priority. Back when we were using stamps, our rate of lost packages was 1.2%. Since we started using tracking, its down to about .5%. Even though these numbers seem low, dealing with the post office the last 2 years has taught me a lot. There is no way I would ship any of my signed items.. its too risky

We live in a rural area now. (Numbers have not changed coming from the Chicago area), but we do live 90 miles away from St Louis and I am considering running to the next cheap convention where jsa or psa will set up. I have about 10 items id love to get certified. Not sure if you are in an area where its an option but keep an eye out for conventions to save on shipping costs
