How rare are Guinness and/or Cushing on Star Wars cast-signed items?

I haven't done a particularly extensive search, but it seems like it's not that easy to find Alec Guinness and/or Peter Cushing on Star Wars cast-signed items. Is that the case?

I would imagine having either or both on a multi-signed item significantly increases the item's value.

I'd be interested to hear any thoughts about this. Does anyone here have one or both on a cast-signed item?

Here's an example of one, a friend of mine picked this up a few months ago, I rather stupidly passed on buying it:

Wow! Two Cushings, a Guinness, a "full" Lucas, and a full Ford, John Williams, plus more...incredible. That's rare, and had couldn't have been cheap.

"Cheap" is relative, because of the poor condition of some of the signatures it went cheap IMO. He got a good deal, but its not a piece that has a lot of presentation value.

I see. The Cushing autos look strong...and Lucas, Williams, but there is definitely fading on some others.

It's a difficult call to make, so many factors to take into account. The time frame the items was signed and exactly who has signed it, and then you have the fact that a soundtrack is an all black cover, the paint pens of the day before Cushing and Guinness passed were terrible and ink flaked off. A high quality piece in high grade, with the full cast including Alec and Peter, the seller could name his own price.
