Authenticity is Everything

Motley Crue The Dirt Signed bookplate

Hey, I was hoping to get an opinion on this signed MC The Dirt:

MOTLEY-CRUE-THE-DIRT-book-signed-autograph-Sixx-Lee-Mars-Neil-1st-Edition-RARE

I did some research and it appears that someone did ask about it here - asking why it was different to this bookplate but the page has disappeared - just my luck :)

Thanks in advance

Bill

The Nikki Sixx one looks a little questionable to me. I have quite a few in-person autographs from meeting him and he always spells out Sixx. He does sometimes just do the N though so that part of it doesn't surprise me.

I can't say for certain about the others or if Nikki was maybe just signing fast on the top one but just from my experience he has always spelled out Sixx.

I think they sold a limited edition amount of The Dirt signed which would explain the bottom one having a number on the bookplate.

Both are real. Nikki abbreviated his signature for the signed book editions. The bottom plate is numbered as the first edition had a numbered signed edition.
