"Thank you! I don't honestly know when my example was signed but I would guess it is more likely from the 80s than 70s. I may be able to find out more exactly as I know who the "Andreas" in question is and I could probably ask through…"

Started Apr 28 0 Replies 0 Likes
This makes quite a nice watch. It was first broadcast a few months ago but I only just spotted the clip on the AR site. For once, the valuation (GBP 5,000 - 7,000) seems about right.…Continue

"Looks fine to me without even having to look at other examples again. This one of mine is probably from the same kind of period."
"I'm amazed that the first of the two examples passed Beckett authentication. I don't think I've seen one quite like that before. The "H" is particularly odd.
The second example seems right but is much later as Eric notes."
"Hi Eric, forgive my ignorance but what does IIRC mean? Is there an intended period?"
"I would also say that it looks rather carefully written and certain parts look a little odd - e.g. the "urn". Compare it to to this one of mine that I drag out in every discussion of her signature from this period:"
"The OP made GBP 1,750 before premiums. The market has spoken but I'm not sure exactly what it said. Seems like a "sitting on the fence" kind of result."
"I'm amazed at that. Perhaps the lack of a dotted i or the dots within the ink (which are unusual for Jimi I think) are troubling him. "
"By the way Ballroom, I just posted an Antiques Roadshow video clip that shows an autograph that is very similar to yours and the OP - signed in November 1967 I think. "
"I noticed that missing dot too but it is obviously real.
The provenance letter is probably a little embellished - I doubt that Jimi was driven to the show in a limo - but that is also hardly surprising. "
"As you no doubt know, the album fetched $14,000 before premiums. Did you win it?"
"Not a lot of doubt there! Nice to see an example from your collection Ballroom. I don't recall you posting items from your collection before - though I'm sure you must have."
"Thanks for the link. Classy video befitting a high-price gallery.
As a photography collector, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of many of the images and the printing methods used. At that sort of price range you'd obviously expect the…"
"A snip. I'll take two while I'm here...."
"There is absolutely no way I would want the fully abbreviated Paul signature. I guess the low edition numbers of the photographs makes them desirable but the signature is garbage - looks more like "RM a" or "R McCann""
"I totally agree that it looks good."
