AutographLive will be buggy tonight while we test code we're developing for it. Everything should work fine within the next 3-5 hours.

Shirley Mitchell - I Love Lucy

My friend is interested in I Love Lucy for a research project and came across two photos of Shirley Mitchell. The JSA one is listed at $120 or best offer while the other has a starting bid at $34. We aren't sure if the signature is real or fake.

I can't speak to this but seller has Paul Henreid for $44. Butterfly McQueen for $39 as well. I would advise caution. I also am against stickers but YMMV.

Thanks for the advice. I’m not sure what YMMV means.

"Your mileage may vary" = some collectors want those stickers (PSA, BAS, JSA, ACOA) and some prefer them on the back. Others prefer them on the certificate, some don't want any sticker at all.

Multiple Gregory Peck @ $59...caution. I did not look at much. Appears a mixed bag.

Are these both from the same seller?

I believe the JSA one is fine. I'd be hesitant about the other. She did live a very long life and was apparently good in signing. Primary collectibility for most due to the Lucy connection.
