Cast signed Blade Runner movie poster, need opinions before bothering to ship to Authentication Service

These are autographs from a cast signed movie poster. I bought it about seven years ago from a company on eBay. I acquired this item when I was still new to the autograph collecting hobby, I'm still an amateur of course, but not as naive as I was back then.

Could someone please tell me if there is at least a chance that these aren't fake? If there is a posibility of them being authentic, then I'll ship the poster to a Autograph Authentication Service.

If you tell me right now that these are bogus, then I'll hit the old Jack Daniels bottle instead.

Edward James Olmos

M. Emmet Walsh

Brion James

Morgan Paull

director Ridley Scott

Do you happen to know where/when this was signed? Kinda an odd assortment for a Blade Runner poster - especially Brion James who died over 10 years ago and it somewhat rare to see on Blade Runner items. Usually you see people who make more the comic con rounds these days - Young, Turkel, Hauer, Hong, etc.

The Walsh looks a bit bizarre (a bit shaky at the end), but not necessarily wrong. I think the Olmos looks okay, but I'm only comparing it against one other example I have from 2004. Same with Scott - looks fine based on what I've seen in the past. These are non-expert opinions of course. ;)

Any chance that Sean Young and/or Rutger Hauer signed it? I might be of more help then.

I have Hong and Young in person, as well as three Rutger Hauer autos from his website and I have some concerns. Hong's handwriting is decidedly different on my photo, but it might have just been a different time, different circumstance in which he was signing. Young looks a bit more rough as well.

Possibly. If Brion James really signed this, then it's safe assume at least a few of these sigs were obtained in the 90's. James died in 1999.

I'm thinking it would still be worth it to send to PSA or JSA. It doesn't seem to be an obvious forgery, so having them look at it wouldn't be a bad idea.

This is my first post. I've been in the comic book industry for 20 years now and have meet most of the cast at Comic con and gotten their signitures on the above print. I include them for comparrison sake. (Wish I had M. Emmet walsh and Brion James though...) I AM NO EXPERT...but some of the ones in the original post look hinky to me. BUT i have to agree that sigs can change from moment to moment...so who knows. The ones I included were signed sitting at a table. Lemme know what you think! Michael

PS I called William Sanderson and he will be glad to add his sig when he gets back in the counrty in about 6 months...he's filming ...somewhere.

Included above are Joseph, James, Joanna, Rutger, Daryll, Sean, Ridley, Sid (Mead), Harrison and Edward's sigs all witnesses/obtained by me.
