"Hi Pauline,
I'm confused by your listing. Is it just for the Elton John autograph or for the whole book(s) (minus Macca). If the Elton limo stub is on the back of the Macca (see your later post) I presume the Elton autograph is selling without…"

Bob Marley - could this be real?
Started this discussion. Last reply by Paul Dec 2, 2020. 2 Replies 0 Likes
This is on an Uprising tour poster. It doesn't match anything i've seen but is there a chance that it is a very rushed example or was signed on a non-flat surface? Although hard to see there are…Continue

I had the good fortune of finding what I am pretty sure is a genuine new-to-the-market Bob Marley signed «Uprising» LP. According to the seller, who I have met and have no reason to doubt, the LP was…Continue

"Thanks Ricardo. It would be better if you could post an image of the album into the thread using the second icon in the top tool bar. Any idea of date?
As you've shown us your best Macca I'll show you my whopper from the '80s -…"
"The McCartney autograph is obviously a bit rushed but looks great next to the limo driver pass.
If the biggest names in the book are the ones you mentioned I wouldn't think the seller would get more than USD 1.5k for the whole book at auction…"
"I prefer the image in 2 as well as the signature. I know the image in 1 is from a more classic period but I've seen rather too many "alluring glance" type shots and the image in 2 is far more dramatic."
"2 by a mile - assuming they are of the same size."
"I have to congratulate you Luke for having the balls (excuse my French) to share your story and for being so articulate.
I agree 100% that research is crucial but sometimes time is of the essence, there is too little information available. or you…"
"The placement is indeed odd but it has to be real. I have a Keaton but a much later one so I don't think it helps much here. "
"Got to be "right" surely? Without even looking at other exemplars I couldn't see this as being secretarial or a fake given the whole look of the piece. Are you sure that the name of the ship is in Keaton's hand and not…"
"Good spot re the ink blots. I think the OP looks less "drawn" than the Long but maybe the "same hand" look of the other three in the Long causes some bias.
Strangely I only have one ink blot on my '64 Lennon:"
"It has a couple of Lennon's typicall "top-of-the-loop" ink blobs ("h" and "e") and is potentially OK but personally I wouldn't go for anything that gets such a mixed reception from other collectors. It looks…"
"Looks good - like my inscribed photo above. It appears that Gene had problems with fountain pens sometimes."
"Having spent a lot of time looking at Bob's autograph after buying a signed LP of his I would say that this one has potential but I personally wouldn't pay big money for it. If I saw it at a flea market for $300 and had to make an instant…"
"I know this is going to make me sound like a complete nerd with nothing better to do than analyse enlargements of pen strokes but does anyone know why Lennon has so many ink blobs at the top of his letters ("J", "o",…"
"I'd say it is more likely real. Here are a couple of mine that differ in some ways but have the same feel about them:"
"If this item was actually authenticated by so many learned authorities it would take a brave man to say it was a fake but to me everything, apart perhaps for the date, looks a bit too carefully drafted. The sketch and date also seem rather large in…"
