Hi Eggzy!

and welcome to the forums.

As for the White Album, thats a piece of Rock and Roll history, I don't think I would sell it to be honest if I had one of the originals signed, have a look on Ebay though, I have seen some Diamond Head stuff get up to and beyond the $100 easily.

At the end of the day thats a NWOBHM collectors item.

Hope any of this helps.

It really depends on who it is signed by. If you have it signed by the whole band that it will be worth a lot of money, as they are becoming very sought after. But even if it is only signed once then I have seen them on sale at record fairs for £40 in good condition.

Now that I've thought about it, you might get more for it on eBay, selling it to a fan/collector who lives outside the U.K. and can't make it to the record fairs or shops there which apparently have items like that in stock. I think I would just about faint if I ever saw an original "White Album" up close and in person anywhere within the U.S.A. - except for Lars Ulrich's copy Laughing but he and I aren't exactly buds!

Well the original vinyl LP's, the first 1000 that people could order throug magazines in 1980, were all signed if not by the whole band, then at least by one of the members. It's obvious since all the covers on these first pressing are different since they are signed by hand. Lightning to the Nations were reissued with this original cover on CD, but also with a different cover at some point. The original vinyl pressings are very hard to find these days. If your CD is just a reissue with original cover, then it's probably not worth too much, but if you've got the band to sign it your self, then you have a gem my friend  Razz

Such a shame my father threw our signed White Album out a few years ago, with all the original band members signed.
