Paul Simon - Graceland LP signed IP

Recently I've had a chance to have this beautiful Graceland LP personally signed and personalized by Mr. Paul Simon... I've read a lot about his signing habbits and that he is a very tough signer nowadays and let me tell you, it wasn't a piece of cake. It required extra planning and effort on my side but I have finally managed to persuade Paul to sign it for me. Being a huge childhood hero of mine (to be honest, especially for S&G stuff!) it's a very precious addition to my personal collection and already one of my favourite autographs.

Took me about 5 yrs to get Mr Simon to sign, and when he did, its was this LP as well!

Very nice, I got lucky and got Paul Simon to sign on my first try but I have heard he is a extremely tough autograph. I got Art Garfunkel on 2 albums last year and would love to complete them but for some reason Mr. Simon does not like to sign S & G stuff. Do you know if he signed any S & G items while in town?

Well, in my case he also signed on the first encounter although it took a while to persuade him to do it... I've heard that he doesn't like to sign S&G stuff, especially when he's out as a solo artist. It seems the last time he's signed S&G albums was on their last Australian tour in 2009:
