We are an eBay affiliate and may be compensated for clicks on links that result in purchases.

We now have a Musician-Direct Autograph Sales Forum where you can post individual discussions of new offerings. It's a big change—and a big improvement. We closed this discussion after 8 years but it will always be available to read. 

The new system has been in place for 2 months now and it's working well.

This video shows you how easy the new forum is to use.

You can follow the forum and be notified of new signings exclusively! And you can enter a musician's name in the forum's search box and find any discussions about them.

Be sure to click the Follow link at the bottom of the list of discussions.

Try it...I think you'll like it.

It can be nice when one stumbles upon a musician's shop (via their website), to see that they are selling their autographs. I figured this could grow as a wee database for listing those musicians who partake in this.

I recently recieved a couple press photos signed in ballpoint from John Mayall's website (http://www.johnmayall.com/merch.html). I am also aware that you can purchase signed CDs from Peter Noone of Herman's Hermits(http://peternoone.com/store/). John 5 ( formerly Marilyn Manson, Rob Zombie guitarist) sells various items signed, with an option to dedicate.

 

So, does anyone else know of this being done by other musicians?

All signed bundles have been removed from Nicki’s store, suggesting that quantities were, in fact, limited. 

And now all Niki's pre orders are on ebay!

Troye Sivan went up on Newbury Comics. He was just signing a ton of booklets on his Instagram Story a few days ago.

Can someone name a few artists who have sold either autopenned or ghost signed autos through UMG lately?  Just got an email back from them after I asked them if they could assure me Minaj autos would be hand signed by Nicki and not ghost or autopenned.  They assured me that all their artists hand sign their autographed items. I'd like to respond to them with a list of clear exceptions to this statement. 

Calum Scott, Maroon 5 (the first batch of lithos was handsigned by the band, the autopenned lithos are still available at greatofferstore for $3.99)

Lol - I sent an email too to inquire if N would be hand-signing and got “all autographed items are signed by the artist”

Hoping for the best, prepared to return in case of the worst.

I emailed UMG and got this: "We're only involved with the customer service for this artist's online store, and are not involved with their management or PR team. We're sorry for any inconvenience, but because of this we cannot assist with this inquiry." Soooo......

They're full of s***.

Demi Lovato (autopen) and Lana Del Rey (ghost signed) are two of the more prominent recent examples. Sadly, UMG handles so many artists because so many labels fall under them (Island, Interscope, Capitol, etc).

Indeed, I remember working on the Lovato and some others to show what there was to show. I had fun with the Dolly Parton, but can't remember who was selling those.

The Dolly Partons were sold through Pledge Music.

Yea. Travis The Dolly Partons on Pledge Music. At least she made up for those autopen ones and and sent out real signed ones after all the complaining.  And they had pics of her signing them. 

Justin Hayward (The Moody Blues) just added to Newbury. https://www.newburycomics.com/products/justin_hayward-all_the_way_c...
