Star trek original cast photos: are the signatures real or fake?

Just wondering if some of the more experienced members who collect Star trek autographs could take a look at this item ( see links) and whether there are any issues with the signatures. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry, these are all very poor forgeries.

Here is most of my vintage set for comparison although these are earlier styles course (1968-1974). These are the earliest in character I could find. Three are signed in character as well.

I thought as much, which is why I decided not to buy it even though the seller assured me it was authentic, and probably why it was offered at a price 'too good to be true'. Your collection is fantastic and great for comparison purposes.

Thanks heaps for your assistance.

Cheers,

Phil

Thank you. I authenticated them myself and paid a very little back in the early days of eBay. Much less than the cost of a Nimoy today. :) I might have a spare vintage Kelley if interested.

Atypical. It is possible that the seller is not even aware. “All sales final” is a definite red flag, even if it was the policy of the estate sale. It should not apply to autographs.
