Some artifacts are rarer than others. For example, copies of the original "signature images", in any size, are worth a pittance due to the frequency of their appearance. This applies even to the original Crossed Reality signature; even though it went out of service over a year before the original Kitty Vertigo or ZenZagg signatures, it was used far more often during the time it was in existence. Below you can see examples of these older designs, and the ones that replaced them.


Crossed Reality "Bloody Star" signature: May 12, 2002 to November 29, 2002


Crossed Reality "Bloody Zero" signature: November 29, 2002 to Present


Kitty Vertigo "Bob the Martian" signature: May 12, 2002 to December 19, 2003


Kitty Vertigo "Bob the Martian (Red)" signature: December 19, 2003 to Present


ZenZagg "Slant Z" signature: May 12 2002 to December 18, 2003


ZenZagg "Zen Sig Supreme" signature: December 18, 2003
While noted above that almost all signature image relics are without value, this is the exception to the rule. In existence for just one day, very few copies of it are known to remain anywhere. There has been only one verified sighting. This makes it quite a find, indeed.

After they were officially hired as staff writers, all instances of Athena Falconess and SamiamtheLast being represented by Guest signatures were replaced. Only a few have been found. In those cases, it's not the image itself that's important (a guest signature, although used less than any of those above, is considered almost without value among collectors and historians), but the context it's used in. You have to have a complete copy of a feature to prove that your particular guest signature once belonged to Athena or Sam.

SamiamtheLast "Copyright Infringement in Blue" signature: September 15, 2003 to Present

Thanks to a little work and a lot of luck, The Jux Museum has obtained the rarest of the rare signature images. Used only on a test page in the Staff section in June 2003, and thus never before seen by the public, we are proud to show the following to the public for the first time. Created when it was assumed that Elliott of Spelling the Vacuum fame, in the culmination of a friendship forged in the darkest days of Jux history, would be joining the site as a staff writer while Graeme was on pilgrimage in Europe. It was not to be, and so, when the redesigned Members page went up with SamiamtheLast on it, the signature image for Grammar Nazi was forgotten. Then, one day while swimming in the river Etowah, hoping through some miracle that water runoff had carried some relics from Jux to the water and then buried them in silt, one of our best Juxaeologists discovered the Grammar Nazi signature, in all it's glory. After much restoration work, we have restored it to what it must have looked like, all that time ago.

That is all that our Signature Image Research team has produced for the Museum so far, but be sure to stop by again sometime, after we've spent some more grant money. New discoveries happen all the time!
