Has anyone seen the recent pawn stars episode that showed some guy trying to sell a terrible forged "lost poem" from jimi hendrix, Drew from aaunlimited.com examined it and almost immediatley deemed it not genuine
At first glance of it,i was in histerics its the worst hendrix forge i had ever seen,the guy said he got it from jimis family....riki hendrix? what a bs story
It was even funnier listening to the pawn stars owner give a history on jimi,saying he played the star spangled banner with his teeth at woodstock,...This guy needs to read some books and watch some dvds on jimi
atleast he knew enough to call a expert in, its my opinion that aaunlimited is a good authenticator,as well as roger epperson,jsa,psa/dna,ama authentication
It would have been funny if christopher morales showed up to examine the forged hendrix poem on pawn stars,he would have probabley said it was genuine
Who ever forged it should get a job at autographs america,autograph central or pop culture signatures im sure they can use another terrible forger(not that there are any good forgers out there,)
The show also showed Bob Dylan signing a album for chumlee and has had a few other autographs that were real(except for the fake hendrix poem)
A number of incidents on shows such as this are "staged."
That includes people coming in with items they want to unload.
The supposed Hendrix item that began this thread may well have been a created by the producers
who then called in their "authenticator" to pronounce their creation a fake.
.
There's a difference between stage managing the show and "staging" the various encounters.
Of course producers will schedule the times when potential sellers will come in. Of course they'll clear the store at those times.
They don't want an unruly crowd to contend with. And of course they'll pre-interview guests. If you don't do that then you have no idea what you're going to get when the cameras roll.
But it seems they're doing much more than that. They're actually "staging" the segments. The items and outcomes are pre-dtermined (scripted, in a sense). Perhaps they're even finding or creating the objects that sellers bring in.
I only saw the trailer for the Dylan segment. I did not see the actual segment. What's peculiar about this is that Bob Dylan is probably THE most unlikely celebrity to just go along with some staged autograph signing. Even for pay. So I'm thinking that there's at least a chance that this segment actually took a bizarre unexpected turn. That it's possible they thought they were sending Chumlee on mission impossible and were going to shoot his efforts as comedic relief. Then he actually spotted and got Dylan.
To anyone who saw the segment, do you think that scenario is possible?
If so, it's a fascinating incident that they should have promoted like crazy.
I don't think so. You can see the segment here, starting at about 6:15.

Thanks for the link.
You're right. Completely staged. And not even well done.
I do wonder how they got Dylan to go along with this....even for $$$.
