This is the Led Zeppelin 1 album and it is signed by all 4 members. If it is real, it is worth a lot of money. Any Zeppelin authentication experts who can tell me if these signatures are real or not.

It is for sale in a local auction and the estimate is £600-£800

All the signatures are fake.

Thanks Steve,

The story goes ...That this album and several others belonged to a backing musician who recently died.

I did wonder when there is only around 30 copies that are signed.

The better the story is the more likely it is a fake. They always love to spruce up the story to make it seem plausible, but 99% of the time, they are not telling the truth.

Thanks Dan.

The problem is.....There must be 20-30 items being sold by the same guy including....Van Halen , The Who, Aerosmith, Cream, Pink Floyd , The Kinks and others.

I have enclosed photos of the Pink Floyd and Aerosmith signatures. I would think these are fake as well then.

He also has many guitars, some signed.
