Audrey Hepburn any thoughts?

Hi Guys,

i have had this in my collection since 1990  bought originally from a Bristol (uk)  collector who obtained it from the BBC terry Wogan show  June 1988.

am thinking about selling  but before ebay and the like would like some other collectors opinions.  it differs from the standard Hepburn i see around but i am guessing it was rushed.

I don't like this, not authentic IMO

I lean towards authentic. Yes it's rushed and not so beautiful... but I think it's genuine.

I've not ever seen anything like this before. Unless you can get someone worth while to put their name on it, I think you could have trouble selling it,

It's so bad, it must be good - if you get my drift. Who would forge a signature like that?

yep; -  it certainly is not pretty to look at but I feel its probably ok.   However, I have seen worse from other so called top celebrity signers.

that was my thinking, it is not the standard Audrey at all you see on many reproduction posters etc,   in fact if i had not been told who it was i would have no idea

I wouldn't want it. It's too ugly and atypical and hard to authenticate. But if you want, post it on eBay and get a quick opinion on it from PSA/DNA. If they say they think it's likely good, leave it up.

Thanks, i will have to think if its worth spending £35  on an apraisal

To Steve's point, a "Quick Opinion" should be about $10 USD from PSA/DNA...

ah,  ok thanks il check

Also to Steve's point, I actually find it more exciting than a standard AH, not ugly because it is interesting, and possibly easier to authenticate because it is atypical (but not so atypical for a late in-person example). I may be biased as I have two similar examples from the early 90s that I posted on this site a while back.

AH appeared on the Terry Wogan Show on 10 June 1988 by the way.

If you get a result from PSA/DNA and decide to list please let us know.

yes; - as  Eva points out it has character and originality and should it be listed I would be interested in  it
