The "musician- direct" subforum is a great way to acquire autographs from artists we might never meet in person, but it's also a risk because you can never be 100% certain of the authenticity.

This thread is meant to keep a record and overview of confirmed autopens and those where serious doubts have been risen. (Limited to items discussed in this subforum)

This is a start, I'm open to suggestions. If there's no interest in a thread like this I'll remove it.

Chrissie Hynde autopenned autobiography, Valve Bone Woe, and set lists from her web store.

Her Stockholm LP was autopenned from her webstore a couple of years ago along with The Pretenders - Alone LP and The Pretenders - Hate for Sale CD's all were released in 2020 using the exact same autopen template - The LP's mentioned above were from 2014 and 2016 but were released on her webstore to coincide with the Hate For Sale CD release - The Hate for Sale CD's were also available on the TM (Townsend Music Website in the UK )! 

That’s right, Hate For Sale was the main offender!

David Copperfield was a big one. Steve grad called him out for having his own items fail authenticity. He knows how it feels and still did it to his own fans

Hank Williams Jr CDs- Rich White Honkey Blues 

Bill clinton - James Patterson "the President is Missing" was autopenned while "The Presidents Daughter" was authentic 

Van Morrison Latest Record Project Vol 1- most were autopen 

Lol you beat me to it.. ill delete my comment

I think all were now that you mention it.

Oh ok, I honestly wasn’t sure but thought maybe some of them were ok. Good to know. 

How could I forget that one?
