"Further - earliest I have seen in Hollywood is about 1945. They were in used in politics at that time."
"thank you, didnt even know autopen would exist back then. "
"This is an Autopen from 1960 - no dots. Overall even impression with no pressure difference on the indent visible on the back. Very mechanical. The thing to look for here are smooth curves - this machine could not do that."
"thank you Michelle, i understand that autopens leave a dot at the beginning and a dot at the end? is there any other signs?"
"I own a number of Princess Diana letters and autographs and the original one posted is unfortunately not genuine. As someone remarked be careful if you buy one of the Xmas cards as a lot of them are autopens"
"Nice, I was looking at a similar card at one point, I believe Richard was her personal hairdresser. Just keep in mind some of those Xmas cards were signed by autopen I believe and not hand-signed."
"thats very nice, yes i have been looking at/for xmas cards, i will keep looking, thank you!"
"If you want a real Diana autograph grab one on of the Christmas cards that pop up al the time. I got mine for $550 and it was authenticated through PSA already. I have a neighbor who is getting better at the framing "
"It has sense. I mean, the prices. Be careful 'cos there're a lot of cheap secretarial ones and fakes out there."
"thank you very much guys, i thought it was strange that Diana would sign both back and front too. Really appreciate the feedback. I have seen a couple of Christmas Cards and letters but very expensive, 3 or 4k, ill keep looking in hope.…"
"This is mine. I guess an upside down example is better than none at all. Eric, a regular on this site, thinks it is often better to assess authenticity upside down anyway:"
"I don't think so either. That's not her hand."
"I would say defintely not genuine. Diana didn't slant to the right like that. The inscription also looks very strange.
Here is a Diana I own:"
Princess Diana - Real or Fake?
Hi Everyone,New to this site, but have been collecting for a couple of years now, so still very new. Could anyone help with this Princess Diana auto? Ive been comparing to genuine signatures of her and looks good, however, one thing that does ring a little alarm bell is that its signed twice ? One on the front and one on the back. Diana is rare enough, so why sign twice? Any help would be appreciated. sorry for the quality…See More
