Al Pacino and the "squignature"

For your amusement, I'd like to share with you all my al Pacino signature, or as I call it squiganture because it's half signature half squiggle.

He did a red carpet here in Dublin a number of years ago. He walked past me on the way in to the cinema. But luckily he signed again on his way out, taking .5 seconds with everyone and signing my original Godfather still.

This autograph may be laughably rushed but I love it. Hope you guys do too :)

I should add that the worst "squignature" I ever got was Leonardo De Caprio - it was just the letter 'L'. I promptly gave it away to a big fan....

If they all signed to whoever it would kill ebay...I have a pretty cool Plant autograph personalised.

Ask him to personalize it, he usually signs a full name but then PSA won't authenticate them. But they pass these scratches all the time. Crazy

I love having stuff dedicated!!!! It means the world to me. Regarding the above comment about asking him to personalize, I did say something "I love what you do man, big fan", but by the time I'd reached the word love he's already moved on :)

i haven't been much of an IP auto hound over the years, but getting him to sign this one has definitely been one the highlights!

Ger,
I've never seen this style. It is a much fuller signature than the usual rushed ip examples. I still can't believe psa will cert some of those signatures. I see them a the time.
