Need Opinions On this Black Sabbath SIGNED PARANOID LP! Thanks!

Hi everyone. I got this LP for $45 at a local record store in Melbourne, Australia. I think it was original 1970 Australia release. I didn't even realize it was signed until i got home to have another look at it. I was really surprised! I would really appreciate if any Black Sabbath experts could help me with these autograph. Do you think they are good or bad? Thanks very much for helping!

All that typing and not one point. Great you had lunch with Geezer, he still can't authenticate an autograph. Also I did do a search of this site and I see Roger telling you that you are wrong about a vintage sabbath autograph. So am i supposed to compare it to this one? Who would think the self proclaimed expert told he was wrong by a real expert, and you ignore them.. Because you had lunch with bill.

Mantle was old and senile? Are you know a Mantle state of mind expert? I may be wrong but I believe Geezer is older than Mantle when he "authenticated" that jersey. But this "point" is irrelevant. I will take rogers opinion a real expert not some dude who can't drop names fast enough who is a self proclaimed expert because he ate with a guy.

WOW!!!! This is the actual record that has caused me 16 years of wanting a signed sabbath record!!!

This info may help authenticate this piece!!

I first saw this exact record with these exact signatures in a record store called verandah music in Adelaide South Australia in 1997. The record store owner got this record amongst a lot that he bought and was never told about the signatures... just opened the sleeve up and found them... He showed me the piece cos i was always going in asking for sabbath records... i wanted it from that second but of course... not for sale! I was always a bit skeptical about ozzys signature as i have a hot wheels car with a printed signature on it that looks nothing like the one on the record but experts on here can see its a early version!

Back in 1997 internet was not big so i would not have any idea how someone would know how to find early signatures but im sure it was possible...

Anyway thats all the info i can offer.... 1997 in Adelaide record store with these exact signatures.... it is burnt into my mind!! especially that weird stick man under bills name.... and what a shame that p hayes had to write his name on the sleeve.

Thanks for posting the pics! Blast from the past!

Now hopefully its my turn to get a sabbath signed record after all these years.... i am living in london going to see Black Sabbath LIVE!!!! on Tuesday night in London... i have my vertigo master of reality lp ready but have no idea on the next step on how you guys get things autographed!! any help or tips would be greatly appreciated!!!

anyone know what hotel or best place to stand after gig... anything...
