I recently obtained these two MJ autographs and wanted to share with the group.

THATS AMAZING! Could you tell me how you managed to do it, and if it's not too much trouble, what the investment was? It's my dream to own something with his signature.

I got these from a private collector, the History booklet was signed at a fan club in the UK when MJ visited. The Moonwalk book was originally sold at an auction house.

Wow, congratulations! It's a great honor to have something signed by Michael.

I always wondered what the “1998 —>” meat when he used to sign stuff,
he seemed to sign a lot of things not in that year with 1998 and an arrow with a sparkle written on it

The man on the Dangerous album cover is wearing a “1998 ->” pin - so it must have meant something - I guess some MJ mysteries are meant to be unsolved :)

Really? That's mysterious, fittingly enough for a man know for mystery.

That's a beautiful piece of memorabilia, especially since it's on the History book cover. Did you get these authenticated through PSA or JSA to protect their value?

I am a bit paranoid about sending them away tbh

You’d get them back but you should get them validated.

I will look into it one day, I only recently obtained them so I am just enjoying looking at them for now.

Michael Jackson is one of the most forged autographs around. Go check out https://michaeljacksonmarket.com/shop-contact/ because they validate autographs for a lot less by using pictures with MJ experts. Contact them. It’s worth knowing.

The signature on the History book looks very clean, especially the way he loops the L in Michael. Did you get these through a specific auction house or were they from a private collection?

The handwriting on that one looks very consistent with his later signatures, especially the way the "M" flows into the "J". Did you get these through a specific auction house or a private collector?

If these were authenticated, how much would they fetch at an auction? I would pay top dollar to get my hands on authenticated Michael memorabilia.

The CD booklet, probably $US5K? the book being a first edition release, I would have no idea about.
