All these autographs are in the same book. I have had 1 reply that said the Judy Garland is a fakebut have a look at the others....If 1 is fake, then surely all are fakes....The same as if all are real....The Garland must be real !!

Surely, someone would not fake 1 signature.

This is not a Judy Garland signature that is typical of an in person occurrence. The scripting seems to refined for what one would expect from Judy whose signature is generally rushed and sloppy. If you do decide to purchase this one, I would strongly suggest you get it authenticated by an expert. Because this is either not Judy's signature or it is an extremely rare and desirable example. I am betting it's either a secretarial or signed by someone other than Judy.

OK thanks Joe. I wont buy it.

I have not studied Judy Garland to be an expert but tend to agree with Eric and Joe in this not being what is more standard. It does not mean the others are not good. The upside down Bob Hope looks fine.  I would tend to side if this is not her signature then someone took it "backstage" for the person to get "signed."  That would be a logical scenario.  One good one does not make the entire good nor the reverse.

I don't know where the other thread is, but I posted these there. I used to own all of them. 1954 candid, 1960 IP,1965 IP, 1961 Autopen. The album page in this thread is not real IMO.

PS - It would have to be late 1940's, and her late 40's sigs don't look like that.
