Bon Scott autograph price??? and rarity and other musicians dying at young age

Hi, I've been looking for a authentic Bon Scott autograph does anyone know current value of his signature and the rarity of it, i know he died at the age of 33 back in 1980 and with Amy Winehouse passing away at a young age, and her autograph being sought after right now, wondering if Bon's is still in demand. I know I see alot of videos and stills of him signing but it just seems I don't see it anywhere. Any help would be appreciated!!!

John Wayne Help

Hello autograph friends. I have been collecting John Wayne signatures for over 25 years now. The item that started my obsession is a signed Hondo photo inscribed to "Dave", my middle name. This was purchased from a very well known California dealer from which I hold a lifetime LOA. As I built my collection over the years, I would talk myself into believing that it was authentic, but as my exemplars build my confidence in this piece diminishes. I must sadly admit that I now feel that the… Continue

Harrison Ford...Real v.s. Fake

I see a lot of questions around the internet and collector's chat regarding Harrison Ford autographs. Quite honestly, Harrison is a very good signer and is out in the public quite a bit ( unlike some stars that only appear during a movie promotion ) in California and NY.

Harrison is one of the top names in the last 30 years of entertainment and is by far one of the most desirable autographs for any collection.

Since I have been regarded as one of the world's…

Jeter 3000th

Guy 5 rows ahead of us caught the home run Jeter blasted for his 3000th hit. Too bad Jete will probably want that. Sick game for the cap, no groundouts and had the winning RBI. Great game and congrats to Jete!
