I presume this is real, though the complete absence of the "i" is perhaps a little unusual. However, the price seems high given the number of other, presumably uninteresting, signatures. They rather overpower Diana's. Don't forget the massive Global Shipping Program fees eother - another £200.

Here is my Diana. I found it in an antiques shop in Norwich (UK) but it was signed at a hostel in London.

This is indeed a very fine Diana, congratulations, I really like it! Is the writing on the other side of the sheet also related to Diana?

Fortunately, no trouble with customs or other fees here, this will go to Germany. I'm willing to pay a higher price for a comprehsible provenance and was lucky enough to obtain a significant discount :-)

Viele Grüße nach Zürich

Thank you! As mentioned, the Diana I posted is from a hostel visitors' book. The writing on the back seems to comprise of the names and addresses of other visitors. The guy I bought it off was the manager of the hostel at the time.

I don't think I ever actually saw the reverse as the autograph was framed when I got it and re-framed by a framer without me seeing it out of the frame. 

I'm glad you're not having to pay the 20% VAT and that you got a good discount. I didn't know that the Global Shipping Program was so sophisticated as regards addresses and VAT rules.
