Back in 1973 I met Ray Charles and he autographed a magazine for me...a national autograph magazine is doing a story in an upcoming issue, but first they want to "tease" the readers with a photo that I provided and an online poll as to the authenticity of it. It appears the the singer was know for never signing "anything he could't see". So, that makes mine a rare piece. The esitmated value is close to 10k. When I heard this, I was stunned.
So, here is where you can help. Follow the link and vote. I'm not telling you how to vote, just vote. The more people that do, the better. You can only vote once. I'm not wanting to stack the deck in my favor. I just wat the poll to have alot of votes.
When the final article comes out, and the value for the item goes even higher, I plan on selling and using the money to open a LHS in my hometown. The next closest is 50 miles away, and this is the Capitol City.
Thanks, and belive me guys, it's real.

Get on it people!!! Kevin is behind. I never met the guy FTF but for me this falls into the "Why would he lie?" catagory. I voted.
Remember, you can vote from home, too. (I am at work and assuming you can only vote once per IP addy.

Thanks for the vote guys... it seems to be helping...
I have noticed a guy on ebay listing his "original" one for 1 million dollars, dang, sure hope he gets it and that it helps raise the value of mine.
