Just went to look at the Signature auction and can't see Frankenstein insert at the top of the list. Is it just me or has it gone?

In that condition, I can't believe it was even offered for sale!
Starting bid of £110.00? Good on him for getting the price!
I sold one of these at the Westminster fair last year for £90.00 and it wasn't mint, had a few problems but not as bad as the above!

The Goldfinger quad went for £205! Gulp.

Private bidders so no idea whether it was just two people battling it out.

Really? There's no coming back from faded... Plus my wife and I tried to match that pink orange color on the Belgian version and it sucks...

Hmmm, how much does prior ownership by a celebrity enhance the value of a poster?

Ari · « **Reply #4585 on:** July 22, 2013, 08:59:40 AM »

It adds a different collector market to the mix.

That's where rock & roll belongs, right?

Imagine if it was a giant sheet of acid soaked paper?
Might not be so much of a rip off.

I have a Horror poster that was owned by Edwin Neal, does that make it worth more...?

guest8 · « **Reply #4592 on:** July 22, 2013, 12:42:24 PM »

I dont know.. that framed print out looks awful simple to me. I wouldn't accept it as adding anything of value just because it could have been faked as well. But if some of you think that's good enough to prove lineage, I have some Transformers 3 posters that were also owned by Jimi Hendrix as well, and Ill even cut you a deal and sell than to you for $1k each!!

Dread_Pirate_Mel · « **Reply #4593 on:** July 22, 2013, 02:19:39 PM »

It's a 40x60, no doubt the real deal. Certainly the ownership story seems plausible but I would not pay much of a premium for it. If JH had signed it, perhaps it would be worth a lot more.

It's so absurd to sell a poster on the basis that someone else owned it before. Could somewhat understand if it were a guitar in Hendrix's case, but not a piece of paper.
Anyway, I find all kinds of "celebrity" worship dumb beyond belief.

Hendrix had phenomenal talent and was/is far more than a "celebrity."

I agree that society is inundated with no-talent "celeb-ritards" like the Kardashians, most royalty, Paris Hilton, Lindsey Lohan, Justin Bieber, etc. They will be forgotten in short order....
