Authenticity is Everything
Star Wars Collectors Unite!
I have been collecting Star Wars autographs since 1998. Not all of my signatures are on Star Wars memorabilia. For example, when I met Warwick Davis at a comic convention in New York City, I had him sign a Willow photograph. I also have publicity photos of Sir Alec Guinness and Christopher Lee from the 1970s, and a Natalie Portman signed The Diary of Anne Frank theater poster from her performance on Broadway back in 1998. My current wish list includes Peter Cushing, Terence Stamp and John Williams. I am interested in knowing about the collections and wish lists of other members.

Thoughts on this Ford?

I've gotten Ford a countless number of times. That is an authentic autograph.

Seems good Zipper.
And Presspass seems to have dozens of every A list celebrity all authenticated. I don't quite understand how. People have brought it up before and some items are way off and some are good. The Fords they have look decent though. One or two oddballs, but nothing out of the ordinary.
I would like to find out more about their operation however. I'm signed up on the email list and constantly get emails about IP signings coming up. However, I don't know of anybody other than Official Pix who has signings with Ford.

Celebrity Authentics had a Harrison Ford signing some time ago.

There's some good insight about Press Pass in other threads, though you might have to dig around a bit. Personally, I don't like them or the way they operate. I can't foresee making any purchases through them. But, in fairness, they do sell many good items. They aren't a sure bet though, no matter how recklessly PSA and JSA agree to slap their stickers on their stuff.

I'm not sure about Press Pass. I'm based in NYC and I get Harrison Ford on a routine basis. Please let me know if you're interested in anything in particular. I've obtained his autograph over 50 times in person and know his signature inside and out.

That has always been my concern with high-volume dealers Rich.

Yeah, and a major reason I don't like big, bloated dealers with marginal concern over authenticity. I'd rather take a smaller dealer who runs a tighter ship any day.

No idea. Like I said, he is very difficult to authenticate. Take a close look, just for the sake of comparison, to the four autographs that were posted here in the past seven hours. They very well may all be authentic. I do not see any red flags other than the minor concerns that I have previously mentioned.

Definitely a signature that requires getting to know the "feel." Too much formation variation.
The challenge with getting to know the "feel" is being able to isolate a large pool of verified authentic exemplars.

The Fords I was posting came from "mmoa-autographs". He's mostly a nascar dealer that I have dealt with before which is why I began questioning if the Ford's were authentic.
Got two for $80 which is very cheap. I'll get my money back if they fail though including fees so might as well take the chance. They are either authentic or extremely good forgeries. And I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt because I have dealt with him before.

Did you pay $80 each or $80 for the pair? Regardless, that is a very inexpensive deal Kevin. Keep us posted on PSA's conclusions.
