"You lost everyone right here "I got the entire collection in 1998 from a lady in Crydon UK . Very long story short , her Nephew" you can't prove this, it doesn't look like any know examples from people who have gotten them…"
" I got the entire collection in 1998 from a lady in Crydon UK . Very long story short , her Nephew was either a Roadie or Sound Engineer ( she was not sure which ) not only for the Clash but a lot of the other Punk Rock bands of the era…"
"These weren’t signed for posterity"
"They all look same hand to my eye. Especially the black set. But Im no expert - not even a novice when it comes to Clash. Totally green."
"When you say “clash insiders” what do you mean? Names? References? Affiliation? I think you are getting bogus stories that sound fantastical, but the bottom line is you can’t align those “signatures”…"
"John : I have plenty of the Chicken Scratch style of signing as well --- mostly on records . The Set Lists and Song Lyrics are from a Clash insiders personal collection and thus I belive were signed more boldly to be saved for posterity . This…"
"Yeah. I’m the expert. These are period correct AUTHENTIC clash signatures from that period. "
"Jack Straw,
You asked for opinions. You can ask John why he feels the way he does, and about his experience, but don't be nasty about it. This is a community where members try to help each other."
"Care to elaborate and go into more detail ? You base your opinion on what ? Do you have an expert Clash / Punk Rock back ground ? Like I said both of the Set Lists have already been hand examined by Autograph COA and certified as authentic .…"
"Nope"
"None of these signatures are real. "
"However the Song Lyrics have come back from Autograph COA as inconclusive ? Everything is from the same source and provenance from the UK way back in 1998 . Any Clash collectors out there ? Any input or opinions would be greatly appreciated…"
