First time posting to this thread, but wanted to show my recently obtained multi-signed blues book. Pictures show the double page spreads, but the book also contains some autos dotted within (Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Curtis Jones, Memphis Slim). I kinda love that Eddie Boyd has 'changed his mind' and decided to sign with a 'y' (I believe he normally signed with an 'ie'):

Wow Nate,

I am jealous. Those are some amazing signatures. What a piece!!! They dont come up often like that. I really like the Magic Sam and J.B. Lenoir signatures. Lenoir is very rare, as well as Sam. One day i hope to add Lenoir and J.B. Hutto to my collection. Bebop had 2 nice pieces at RR, but they were just to expensive for me. Besides the pages shown, and the guys you mentioned, like Muddy, did anyone else sign throughout the book? If they did and you wouldnt mind posting photos of them, id really appreciate it. Or even the photos of the other guys who signed. Id love to add them to my exemplar file.

Oh yeah, i wasnt able to identify the writing next to Eddie Boyd (the word ROMBRO). Do you know if thats something Eddie signed, or is that another signature next to Boyd. It doesnt look like Boyds hand, so was just curious.

Hi Carl. Thanks for message.
The Eddie Boyd reads "from bro" a fairly typical dedication I believe for Eddie (the scan had chopped off the edge of the page). I believe the dedication and signature are by Eddie, but I must confess to having no idea as to why he switched from lower to uppercase (it does indeed seem strange, but then so is the spelling).
The other signatures as far as I can see are only those ones I listed. I've attached an image (the only one I have on this PC).

I am very happy to obtain a NASA lithograph signed by Gemini astronaut Ed White. Ed White died tragically with Gus Grissom and Roger Chaffee in the Apollo 1 fire in 1967. A true pioneer and hero.
