The Smiths signed vinyl

Hi all. Getting anything that is signed by all four members of The Smiths is very very difficult indeed. I purchased this vinyl from a reputable dealer I trust. It's signed by Marr, Joyce and Rourke, but not Morrissey. I will hopefully be meeting Morrissey in a few weeks and want to get him to complete the signatures. Just thought I'd get a second opinion on these three. Thanks!

In my opinion these three signatures looks fine. I wish you the best of luck to get Morrissey to sign this record. It is very well know that Morrissey will not signed anything by The Smith that is already signed by any of the other members of the band. I have a friend that have tried a few times without success. And my friend is a huge Smith fan. You will get Morrissey to sign something else, but probably not this record.

Good Luck!

I heard that too, but I've also heard the opposite. If he doesn't sign it, I'll just call him a prick.

I certainly will, thanks. The Smiths albums on eBay that are signed by all four members of the band -- they have a stink of forgery about them. What do you think?

I have an idea: Maybe there's a way to hide that it's signed by the other three. "Here, Morrissey, just sign through this opening here..." Haha. Wrap the album in an image of Morrissey with a hole in it where the space is where I want him to sign... Decorate his picture with art, like cut out cardboard stars and say it's a piece one of the kiddos made at home...sprinkle it with glitter... Might work...

Hi John - you can see my Morrissey frame here (just scroll down a bit): https://www.facebook.com/richardfinlaycollection
Didn't get a chance to ask him to sign the album with the the other three signatures on it. But the way I've framed the album and the 8x10 is good for me. At least it all FEELS "together" in the display. Just curious: which SMITHS albums do you have for sale that have all four signatures on them? Thanks.
