This Kurt Cobain Signed Credit Card Receipt is being offer for sale on the bay right now.
Personally I consider this as a copy.The receipt is the 2nd carbon copy that the buyer keeps. Would you consider this as a copy or as an original???

i agree its a copy

I would consider it a wonderful item with a lot of value. That being said, it would be worth considerably less than the "top copy" kept by the business. This is a copy in a different sense than a Xerox copy. The hand of the artist actually caused this signature, not a machine.

Yes i agree, the old carbon copy.

I don't know about considerably less. I mean, it's not quite the same as having the signature in his pen, so as an autograph, it's worth less than the top copy.

But as a general piece of memorabilia, this is the "cardholder copy" and that cardholder would appear to be Kurt Cobain. That would mean that, without knowing the full story behind this piece, it would seem that this piece of paper was the property of Kurt Cobain. He touched it, handled it, and possessed it. To many (perhaps outside the autograph community), that means a lot more than something he just signed and handed back to someone else.

The business' copy may bear his live signature, but it can never claim to have been owned by Kurt Cobain. It's not necessarily worth less, it's just a different market, not unsimilar to baseball card collectors who see signatures on the cards as flaws.
