Well, it took me a few attempts, but I finally got what I feel very confident is an authentic Prince autograph. Right now on eBay, there are maybe two or three real Prince autographs and probably close to one hundred fakes.
The one that I have just purchased was obtained on April 16, 1988 on a Northwest Airlines flight from Minnesota to New York. The woman who got the autograph was a flight attendant on Prince's flight. Since she was the one serving him, she asked him for an autograph. He signed the flight manifest, "'Love God' - P+"
It appears, from the few I've seen that Prince was often signing things this way in 1988.
I lost out on an auction for a Prince concert signed ticket stub that he had signed, "To Dawn - Love Prince" in 1979. On that one, he signed his entire first name.
But I'm still happy with this one. Plus, it's kind of cool that you can see his name on the flight manifest, "Nelson, Mr. P"
So what do you think? Does it look good to you? There are pics below.
Thanks for your comments.
