Campbell (d. 2022), Stephen Hodges, Junior Watson, Jimi Bott, Gene Taylor (d.2021), and Jeff Turmes. James signed the front cover in Southern California in the late 1990's or early 2000's.

Junior signed at the Blue Cafe in Long Beach, California on January 11, 2003. Jeff signed at Harvelle's Club in Santa Monica, California on December 17, 2019. James signed the cover with a light blue paint pen. Kid, Willie, Stephen, Junior, Jimi, & Jeff signed with blue sharpies. Gene signed with a blue paint pen. The actual record will come with it but I don’t guarantee its' condition as I bought the albums based on the good condition of the covers since it's the signed album cover that I believe is most collectible.
I guarantee the authenticity of the signatures can be confirmed by
any of the reputable authentication companies such as Beckett, JSA, or
ACOA. Buyers should not automatically assume that a signature is genuine
just because a seller offers a COA. Autographs are only as good as
the integrity of the person who is selling them. That said, I offer
my own Celluloid Heroes COA, signed by me, to anyone that requests one with
their purchase.
Sometimes, when a celebrity is in a hurry, they often give a
"rushed signature" resulting in a sloppy autograph. But because I
watched them sign it, I know that it is authentic. Therefore, if a
reputable authentication company decides they cannot guarantee the item's
authenticity, simply get a document from them stating their opinion and return
it with the item for a full refund. If you're not happy with your
purchase for any reason, there is a 30-day no-questions-asked refund
policy. Returned items must be received back in the same condition
as when purchased and the buyer must pay for shipping.
I started Celluloid Heroes in May 1995 but didn't start selling on
ebay until January 2014. Most of the autographs I'm offering were
gotten in person over the last 30+ years either by me or by one of the
collectors I worked with in the greater Los Angeles area including Hollywood,
Westwood, and Beverly Hills. About 85-90% of the autographs will
have the exact location and date that they were obtained.
In the future I will be selling some of the autographs from my
private collection that I’ve purchased from other reputable dealers. I will
guarantee their authenticity just like I do for the ones that were personally
collected. I never buy or sell any autographs unless I believe they
are genuinely authentic. Although I’m not a professional authenticator, I
did develop an eye for the signatures of hundreds of famous people during the
10-year period when I was actively collecting at least four to five days a week.
A shipping discount will be given for multiple item
purchases. If you have any problems with your purchase, please
contact me before giving any negative feedback as I would like to keep my 100%
positive feedback rating. Feel free to ask any questions you might
have because I want all buyers to be happy with their purchases. And
if you have a good experience with Celluloid Heroes, please leave us some
positive feedback. Thanks again for your interest!
