Hello,

I was referred to this site after happening across an ebay posting (272196710555) that contained my aunts polaroids from the same day.  We had wondered what happened to them and my jaw about hit the floor when I saw the listing!  After chatting with Mark who is selling them, he pointed me here and I thought you guys might like my photo from that day.  My guess is my aunt decided to include them in the auction, as she was very passionate about raising money for AIDS at the time and helping the clinic. 
My mother was high school friends with Kurt's mom, and she had set up the visit so that my aunt could get Kurt to autograph some CD's to auction off for the health clinic that she worked at.  I remember him signing a few other things such as our polaroids, the red condom boxers (vividly remember since I was so embarrassed about it), and a few CD inserts for Nevermind (don't remember the #).  This all happened at his moms house in Aberdeen, and when he was signing mine he was commenting how weird it is to be from Aberdeen and be considered a "professional rockstar or whatever that means".  His mom saw him sign mine with his "stage name" as she called it, and did not like it or the fact that francis went by it also (was never sure what that meant). 
It was a fun visit and I love having the polaroid to remind me of it.  I blacked out my face, as I'm not comfortable with putting that on the internet this way.

Thanks!

Hi Bryce
Thanks for sharing. On ebay i seen 3 cd incerts with your aunts letter one is still on there that originally had kurt and know Dave and Krist signed it.
Do you remember incesticide or Bleach being signed at your aunts.
A fellow member here owns the other 2 polaroids.
Bryce check this out on ebay number 111824445414

This is one of 3 that came up on ebay and sold for 800 us and then someone else decided to throw a few more thousand on it after dave and krist signed it. I don't know if the kurts sig is real.

Its Kurts anniversary again where he was most likely bopped off.

Yeah, those are my aunts polaroid's she had taken and signed that day and the note is certainly her handwriting.  I don't remember any of the CD's unfortunately, as I was not really paying attention to it.  My cousin (aunts son) who was also there may remember and I'll ask him next time I see him, his memory is a lot better then mine.  I kind of remember there being at least 4 CD's, but I'm in no way certain about that.

Your a lucky lad, having your pic taken with Kurt and having it signed.

I was just curious to whether someone has lifted your aunts letter as provenance on that incesticide cd.

Bryce friend me.

I really only remember the Nevermind CD's, and I also feel like he was doing the "Kurdt Kobain" thing all day.  But I would not take that as proof that this is fake.  The letter could easily be used for that like you say, I'll see what my cousin remembers.

If you ever want to sell that snap, let me know, I'm a big goof for nirvana.

There is a nirvana and foo fighter group you can join or look through on this forum, we just post tickets and autographs etc posters.

I see guys collecting Kurts grandfathers and uncle's autograph these days.
