Our primary focus is obtaining in-person autographs, especially that relating to musicians.

I am an autograph collector, and I have a Monty Python book which has been signed by all six of the Python team - John Cleese, Michael Palin, Eric Idle, Terry Gilliam, Graham Chapman and Terry Jones. Could you give me a vague idea as to how much it might be worth?
Many thanks!

Answer Signed photos with the cast of Monty Python last year were going for around $300 and a signed Album with those names sold for $650 just recently. While I'm unfamiliar on the limited edition of this book, the quality of the signatures, or the authenticity, my initial estimate is around $300-$500 with the assumption that these are hand signed authentic signatures and higher with good provenance and rarity. I hope this helps.
