This is Hollywood Memorabilia's "Bowie offerings. ALL forgeries. Poor signatures, absurd prices. Very poor signatures, totally absurd prices.

maglavalva - In answer to your question about the Hollywood Memorabilia piece....it's unquestionably fake.

I don't mean any offense, but it seems like you may not know Brando's signatures well? That's no problem, of course. He's actually a bit tricky for many collectors. If you look at past sales at RRauction and/or Heritage Auctions, you'll see a variety of ways that he signed over the years.

Just keep posting anything you come across that you are considering and you're bound to get some responses. Members like Steve Cyrkin, Joe W, David Lewis and some others have fine knowledge of Brando.

Thanks Eddy. I was just estimating possible prices based upon this site which you said you trusted. https://www.maxrambod.com/pages/books/8918/marlon-brando/marlon-bra...

Yes, that dealership is top notch. They are members of PADA...which is a sharp cut above other autograph dealer associations.

maglavala - I'm just thinking about what you are trying to put together.

I'd personally stick with seeking out something like a signed album page or legal document. If you come across a photo (and it's actually real) then you are probably in for big money and photographic stock won't be the best as a cut piece. It would also be a shame to cut a photo.

Something in the style of the Max Rambod offering is nice as his name is typewritten under the signature which you would get possibly with a legal document like it.
