Bowie 1972

I understand that Bowie autos are price sensitive. How much do you think this one is worth

I have to back up Eric's response in that there does seem to be an abnormal influx of late Bowie's these days. The '70's style is making gains and they should be seriously scrutinized before purchasing.

Andy says 100% genuine. Happy days. I told him autograph live had doubts. He said totally disagree 100% genuine.

I've just paid for it anyway. He also said it would be about £500

I didn't buy the Elton John that's £45 if anyone is interested.

Excellent/Congrtaultions! I'll write him and suggest he change the comments about the "k" loop on his blog "When it's tough". IIRC he has it as a hard rule. Thanks! He is correct abt the price.

I told him he can have it as an exemplar.

I mentioned you and about the K loop

The Cassidy is fine. It's £45. I have two of his already, so don't need another.

The Kate Bush is 100% also

How can you be 100%?

I see 3 atypical signatures. One from a huge superstar who just passed, priced very low.

Thats why Im skeptical. I could be wrong.

Fair enough. Im not in the market for any of them, so win/win, I guess?

Enjoy!

Ah, I just wrote as well. Between Andy, MarkG, myself and one or two others - we usually agree. :)

Best wishes,

Eric

No that was referring to another later forged autograph!which was definitely not genuine - the swirl clearly existed in his writing as is shown here - later he dropped it to the none kink version. If you look at my blog you will see how his handwriting changes in certain ways - more curly and pronounced from 72 to the end of 73 when he hit his first round of fame.

I own several 72/73 Bowie’s and this is without any question real...I would stake my house on it.

Best wishes

Andy
