these are great!!! Some I wouldve never thought were him!! The Star Wars one with Chewie I have a Blade Runner signed like that too. Well that makes me feel better
no I love the one with him and Hamill. I didnt mention it because its a given. I never see many Blade Runner shots signed by him
I want to remind people that vigorous discussion is encouraged on Live! but personal attacks are not, whether or not the person is a member. Thanks.
Here is a long time eBay forger of Cartoonist art like Charles Schulz, Dr Suess, Bob Kane and others. He will consistently post a few every month of the same artwork. All "traced" forgeries, all on the same suspicious "new" paper carstock style. AND NOTE, he has 100% feedback as do MOST eBay forgers. They all provide their OWN COA as they know very few, if ANY Inexperienced buyers will ever get their items authenticated. Not until maybe several months or years later will a buyer try to sell to a dealer or auction house , and then find out he/she has been scammed , but will be TOO late to leave fraudulent sellers like this feedback.
