  • Bjarne Soderholm

    Hello Roger.

    When you replyed to my blogspot about real/fake Sex Pistols and The Clash records, you stated that they wasn't real. The seller refuses to give me a refund before I tell him the name of the person who said the records wasn't real. So far I have refused to give him the name. But if he ask again, Can I give him your name?

    Best Wishes
    Bjarne Soderholm

    Thank you very much for you input on the Greatful Dead picture. I took it back to the auction house and got a refund. Just sucks because I bought it for a Christmas present. Thanks again.

    Dear Roger,

    Steve Cyrkin suggested me to ask for your opinion. So, when you get a chance could you check FORUM Authenticity opinions where I recently posted two autographed photos: Ozzy Osbourne and Emerson, Lake & Palmer.

    Please let me know what you think? You professional opinion will be greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Dmitri.

  • Bill Waterhouse

    Roger,

    I wanted to see if you have an example of the Springsteen signature to compare it to. I have never seen one like this and am curious to see another.

    Thanks,

    Bill

  • Julie Snyder

    Hi Roger, Here's the image. Brian was on his bus alone for an hour and only 10 of us were outside his bus waiting. So I think he had reasonable time to sign 10 of these photos without having shaky/choppy penmanship. What do you think? Is it his handwriting?

  • Alastair Mulholland

    Hi roger,would you mind having a look at my bon scott autograph on the What do you think of this autograph on the discusión forum.I would be grateful for your opinión on it.Thanks.
  • eddie

    Hi Rodger ,

       I was directed to yourself to have a look at some signatures for authentication on

    http://live.autographmagazine.com/forum/topics/possible-john-lennon...

    I was informed the Julian lennon autograph was real ,but due to the autograph being on the black part of the photograph he was unable to verify the john lennon .Also i was informed you do a $15 service ? i am in the UK so im not sure how that would work 

      Eddie

  • eddie

    Thanks again for your expert advise Rodger ,could you comment on this as well ,its on a unique i think john lennon photograph ,just a small one .This came from the same source ,if i can comment this woman had signatures of ,mimi smith ,louise harrison ,pauline harrison to name a few so i think she was an avid writer to these people and from this source it wouldnt surprise me in the least if some of these are correct as you seen with the book ,

      Kindest regards Eddie

    Yesterday, i posted a discussion in the "Beatles autographs" forum, concerning an item i had just won at a UK auction. It was the Paul Mccartney autograph signed "Cheers from", then an arrow pointing to a face doodle. I recieved several replies, and the last one was from Steve Cyrkin, suggesting i post a comment on your wall asking for advice.

  • Null

    Hey Roger not sure how familiar you are with Travis Barker, but check out how lazy he got with his sig on a poster I got. The bottom pic is the poster, the top pic is another poster I have with his normal sig. I have never once seen this pathetic "T".

    Roger I'm new to this site but have been reading a lot of your comments on authenticity of rock memorabilia. I posted a discussion on a Rolling Stones guitar. Real or fake? Good price?

    Your comments would be appreciated.

  • Ricky H

    Hey Roger, im new to the site and was wondering if you could check out the discussion i posted on the Robert plant autograph off ebay for authenticity? that may be an easy answer because of the video but if you could just check out the signature i would feel much more comfortable with your approval! keep up the great work!

    Roger, I've posted a discussion about a Stones signed drumhead I bought years ago when I was young(er) and didnt know much about authenticity. Was cleaning out my closet & found it. Would you mind taking a look at the post (with pictures) and let me know what you think? I would certainly appreciate it. Hope you're doing well.

    Hi Mr. Epperson. I would really really appreciate if you could have a look at my post about Black Sabbath signed album. I would like your expert opinion on those signatures. Thank you so much in advance. Cheers!

    Hi Mr. Epperson. Thank you so much for your reply and your opinion on those Black Sabbath autographs. if it's not too much trouble, I would really appreciate if you could compare your early Sabbath exemplars when you get back to your office. Thank you very much again. You have a nice day!
  • jay lee

    Roger,

    On March 31, 13 I sent you an e-mail asking you why I should hire you as an authenticator? I never got a reply from you? Thanks, Jay

  • jay lee

    Roger,

    I respect that you do not take on new customers but wouldn't the polite thing to do is reply to my e-mail letting me know that?? Thanks, jay

  • jay lee

    As for Paul M. I notice lots of his examples signed with his last name in full. If you look at the Sgt Pepper, bass and plain autograph they all look very, very different??

    Guitars, the Stones Mick Jagger and Ronnie Wood don't look good to me.

    Of course if you tell me you got all those autographs in person yourself that I am off base and I am sorry, Jay

     

  • Carl Ryan

    Hi Roger,

    I thought you might want to check out this thread:

    http://live.autographmagazine.com/forum/topics/kiss-autographed-8x1...

    Their are some discussions in it about some JSA items, and people are unsure if you are still authenticating for them. Hope all is well.

  • Scott

    Hi Roger, I ordered a quick opinion from you for an Axl Rose autograph on Friday. I just want to make sure you got it.  Carl Ryan told me to post a message here to follow up since theirs did not send one time.  The item is a Buy It Now on eBay so I'm hoping to get the opinion before someone else snatches it.  Thanks!

  • lgee

    Hello Mr Epperson, I recently purchased a signed Ringo Starr CD booklet, from a UK auction house, which came with a COA from yourself. On recieving the item, i noticed that the image of the signature on your COA, was different from the actual signature. (The signature was in a slightly different postion). Although i am happy to keep the item as i believe the signature is genuine, i am obviously dissapointed as your COA adds to the items authenticity/value etc. I am not sure if this is a genuine mistake, or an attempt at deciept (Auction house said they were unaware of this). The date on your COA is 2-1-12. I thought i would contact you as i am sure you do not want your COA's being used fraudulently.  I would be very interested in your thoughts, as i am confused!

    Many thanks

    please let me know what you think 

  • Roberto

    Hello, Mr. Epperson. Could you help me to identify if these Floyd autographs (Wright, Gilmour and Mason) are fake or real? This is from an EBAY auction.Thank you

  • Patrick GOSSELIN

    Dear Roger,

    I have been a die hard Michael Jackson since Thriller era. As a result, would you be so kind enough to let me know whether or not this item I own is a fake or not.

    Best Regards.

    Patrick

  • Patrick GOSSELIN

    This will help you (if you don't mind) leave your opinion regarding the subject.

    Thanks.

  • mccawgomets

    Hey Roger,  I'd like to send you one or more records for authentication purposes.  HOw would I go about doing this?  Mike

  • mccawgomets

    Hey Roger can you look at the following images and give me your opinion on legitimacy?  I got the album via ebay seller "mustangace" who has 20,000 feedbacks and 100% positive feedbacks.  He says he purchased the albums he offered from Darcy Kane, a radio host in Texas as part of an estate sale.  The estate sale is legit and there were a couple thousand albums offered (900 of which were signed).  The assumption was Darcy got all these albums signed personally during her career.  please see the following link and jpegs for more information. I will gladly pay for your services and send the lp for you to look at if necessary.

    Mike

    the price seems to good to be true, so I wanted to ask if this signed LP belongs to your COA? If this is Legit... I will buy it

  • John D.

    Hi Roger,

    I’m new to the forum and autograph collecting. I was told by another member you could give me an opinion on an item. Have you heard of or dealt with Ebay seller K9graphs before? His price seems high but he’s taking offers. Thanks in advance for your time.

    Regards,

    John
