Okay. So I can't believe no one has brought this up. You see how it says Alexandria Library? Jim lived in that area with his family and went to George Washington Junior high school-still there. He still has several books, one I think by Kafka, that he has still not returned to the Alexandria library. I used to go there. A small nice library. Anyway, it takes little imagination to understand that Jim did not return this one as well and gave it as present the same way someone might who has limited funds but wants to give something cool. I always give my stuff away. No one has ever mentioned this about this book. Nowhere. Ever. The second I saw the Alexandria Library book lable, I laughed. The library has the right to ask for it back.
@ Richard Edenfield Are you the library police? Sometimes libraries offer sales (at least all I’ve ever visited) of books that are redundant or no longer needed. I have bought many there. All libraries put their stamp on incoming books. I have bought many with a library stamp on it from second-hand stores. Shame on you for posting this comment. Do you keep up with everything for libraries for 60++ years?? Seems like you are ASSuming too much.....
So the OTHER book to which you refer was one of two volumes, actually. The biography of Morrison which provided this piece of biblio- trivia didn't specify which of the 2 volumes Morrison kept, but the title(s) are: The Diaries of Franz Kafka (2 volumes published/sold separately) ; Vol. I. 1910-1913; Vol. II. 1914-1923. Until his copy emerges from the woodwork someday, your guess is as good as mine regarding the volume Morrison "kept' from the library. Here are links to facsimile copies of the complete books; unfortunately, as I checked, neither of those copies were signed by Jim! archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.499492/page/n35/mode/2up archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.113478
@@frankiebutler2894 You are being a jerk. The guy made some good points. You could have helpfully added the information about libraries selling books without name-calling and being an asshole.
Feels like it crosses some line of protocol. I've never heard that on Antiques Roadshow before, and he's clearly serious too. Really shows the pull of Morrison's charisma to this very day!
Lol.. it's a Alexandria, Virginia library book that he gave him for a Xmas present. Wow! Can you imagine what Jim's overdue book fee is now. Amazing... I want to go for a beer with this guy too. Love you Jim
Yeah, that is perfect. I'm sure this guy is more intelligent than most or Jim wouldn't have selected him as a friend. He should write a biography about Jim's early life. His relationship with Morrison might open doors (no pun intended) to old friends of Jim that others wouldn't have access to. Most of what you read about Morrison is his life after his musical days began. I'd love to read more about his minds development as a youth ..
I've seen a longer, more complete version of this where the guy tells a couple of brief Jim Morrison stories -- and then says he has more but can't talk about them on air. :-D Definitely would be an interesting guy to talk to.
@jason royale you are just a jealous untalented ugly asshole probably, dont be like that its ugly and jim was a pretty good lookin dude and obviously intelligent and talented.
@jason royale shut the fuck up. You know nothing of psychadelics. Psychadelics got rid of alcohol in my life. Your “friends” most likely bought fake acid as is very VERY common. Or theyre liars. He was still handsome even after the alcohol took over. Such a man you are speaking about another, what makes you worthy of such opinions? Unless youre god almighty himself, dont speak as if youre perfect because news flash, you aint.
The guy goes to the bar with the book guy and get's drunk and get's the guy's number but the next day he forgets all the stories so he calls the guy find out what happened and Jim answers - what??
-"he was interested in the idea that.. maybe... people who are criminals are really saints, and that... saints are criminals." - so then.. what you're sayin' is... Jim Morrison had an Anti-Christ spirit
I really wish the appraiser would have stopped going on about things everybody already knows about Morrison and let the guy with first hand knowledge talk more.
Easily the coolest segment ever on Antiques Roadshow...
....only because the Grateful Dead's Hookah hasn't come up for valuation yet....
I think Jim was channeling through the dog.
LOL
The dog wanted a beer too.
Jim was kind of a dog - as scurvy dog.
Intellectually deep . You hear that from everyone who knew morrison .
Would have been a trip to know .
Yes. But I'm sure I would bore in in 10 minutes ....

Jim still isn't appreciated as a great thinker. He was a poet who became a rock star because that's where the money and women were.

This is the nerdiest show ever. I love that we actually got to hear the beer invitation (as opposed to scrapping the cutting room floor.)

What u mean?

Thx for sharing
the producer of that show must also have been a fan to let that ramble. anyone listening will just wait however long it went
That dog wants to have his kicks before the whole sh*thouse goes up in flames. Ahhh Right!
The dog is haunted and freaking out, there is a presence there........the occult
Look behind you.
Jim Morrison, my Scottish DNA Cousin. I have 2 of his autographs. Cool Video.
Seriously? That's cool I thought he was Irish
@@nicholasmaxwell9899 he was Irish lol
Jim referred to himself as IRISH. In a tapped interview he mentions his” IRISH wit.”
what a gift
Damn dog in the background ruins it
Thanx 4 sharing
I think the Alexandria Library might want their book back
Do anybody know if he ever sold the book? And at what price.
Been trying to look it up, tho without any luck.
Jim turned 20 on Dec. 8, 1963,
Great stuff it would have bee cool if he was able to say more of what Jim was like pre the doors
He's able. Nothing stopping him.
I'm glad someone there got out alive....
The guy goes to the bar with the book guy and get's drunk and get's the guy's number but the next day he forgets all the stories so he calls the guy find out what happened and Jim answers - what??
Jim Morrison,s favorite challenge , was any thing or anyone , whom stood in His way , open the door , see who is there!
I think I hear Jim barking in the background
I love Morrison fans
Jim’s GF Pamela said that their dog Sage channeled Jim through his barking. Weird!
Please, she was a flake heroin junkie. Sorry Jim
crazy they had dogs at the Antique Roadshow
...I`m looking for a dog under my desk.
percboy555 under your desk ? Look between your legs if your sitting at the desk. LOL.
WOW!!! wheres that book now???
Wow!
I hope he didn't take that beer & get lowballed
Am i the only one who wants to pay Jim's overdue library book bill?
Yes
Nice
?! Jim Morrison went to college?!! WHO KNEW!
How old are you kid.
is this history of magic by eliphas levi?

Fantastic! jim into rhe occult?
Who'd have thunk it? lol

Dog is bursting for a shit and all they do is ramble on about the Lizard King
8 to 10 thousand? No way.
What’s with the dog barking! Does the dog like the tv show?
Uhhhh....can i read what's innnn that book😂
Lucky dude I would be doing some acid trips & smoking good bud have drinks.....long live the lizard king ✌
Dude! You’re already doing a video of a tv program, (a video of a video!)at least get your dog out!
Shout out Missoula
Too bad the damned dog was allowed to keep barking. Made if difficult to listen.
That interviewer babbles on and on. Im not interested in you

There was undoubtedly a lot he couldn't talk about on air. :-D
