Speaking for myself, I'd prefer the Bench in my collection over a sharpie signature on a mass produced photo signed at a show or something. Being a somewhat older dude, I happen to like black and white and ballpoint pen but I also appreciate the vintage-ness of that piece.
So if I were in the market (I'm not) I would be willing to pay slight premium.
Rose is kind of killing his own market. Used to be hard to find a non-forged Rose autograph, but he'll sign just about anything now and for a small fee at that.
I agree with the others that the Rose's are not good.
