Star Wars Collectors Unite!

I have been collecting Star Wars autographs since 1998. Not all of my signatures are on Star Wars memorabilia. For example, when I met Warwick Davis at a comic convention in New York City, I had him sign a Willow photograph. I also have publicity photos of Sir Alec Guinness and Christopher Lee from the 1970s, and a Natalie Portman signed The Diary of Anne Frank theater poster from her performance on Broadway back in 1998. My current wish list includes Peter Cushing, Terence Stamp and John Williams. I am interested in knowing about the collections and wish lists of other members.

No, but Pete is an expert on Peter Cushing autographs. He will know for sure.

Those autographs all look authentic to me. Let's wait to see what Pete has to say about them.

I appreciate the dialogue, guys! It's kind of steeled my resolve to only pursue in-person from here on out.

Sure ....I go out to dinner one night and all these shots pop up.....hahahahhaha

The Fisher is an a 1980's and 1990's secretarial TTM signature.

The Ford is an outright forgery.

The Guinness, Hamill, Daniels/Hamill and script are all fine.

The Cushing, I'll grab the scan and see if it comes close to matching up with his standard 90's signatures. The g is usually the dead giveaway....and this one seems just off enough.

I agree about the "g" Pete. I was taking a close look at it as well.

I've only run into 2 or 3 samples with the "short g" variety ...... so there is a possibility on this one.

Bill, if you are following this thread still....and if you have the ability to get a huge scan of the just the signature, I'll be able to tell you for sure one way or another.

Blowing this scan up, just pixelates the details I am looking for.

Hi Pete,

Sorry, was on the phone. Yes...slightly more encouraged about the others now...seems from the 71 pages I read that the Ford and Fisher was likely to be phony. My scanner is down but I will try taking a higher res photo if you think that might help. Back in a sec.

Pete, are you sure about the first Mark Hamill autograph? There is something about it that simply does not sit right with me. I am much more comfortable with the second one for some reason.
