Fake that's been bought and sold on eBay at least 3 times in the past year. Brian is awful. Not to mention that's not even remotely close to what freddie's late 80s-91 signature looked like. They tried to forge a 80-83 style Freddie and pass it as a late 80s-91. Terrible.
As a matter of fact, there was at least one more that this forger did of both Freddie and Brian on the SAME promo photo. He tried to do the same Best Wishes with the same Freddie attempt. The Brian was in a different place on the photo but it was just as terrible and both signatures were absolutely fake. Originally, we believed the guy who made them was an Italian fan, but now we are starting to think it's a fellow out in the UK. There's a few queen forgers we are well aware of and know by name. This guy's work has been seen way too often to not notice.

Too many forgeries lately... I've just seen the one being sold on RR and it's ridiculous. Those small sigs on a Works vinyl... The red could be okay but the same size.... Come on! Used to love RR but these things make me ungry!
Yes, I believe it's on a complete works box set sleeve. I don't recall what the box set was called for sure. All the same size (never happened on genuine pieces). This box set was released with a few officially signed by the band. This one doesn't match up with those. Not to mention the Brian is the most bizarre I think ove seen in a while
