Star Wars Collectors Unite!

I have been collecting Star Wars autographs since 1998.  Not all of my signatures are on Star Wars memorabilia.  For example, when I met Warwick Davis at a comic convention in New York City, I had him sign a Willow photograph.  I also have publicity photos of Sir Alec Guinness and Christopher Lee from the 1970s, and a Natalie Portman signed The Diary of Anne Frank theater poster from her performance on Broadway back in 1998.  My current wish list includes Peter Cushing, Terence Stamp and John Williams.  I am interested in knowing about the collections and wish lists of other members.

It is likely authentic,but not one I would have in my collection. between the ink loss in the L and the parallel running of the G and L, most advanced collectors would avoid it.

Holding out for nice vintage signatures isn't very realistic

But nicer modern pieces are certainly around

Vintage is the way to go!  You can get still get lucky

These other two signed the same day are complete junk

Wait till he puts a hole through your poster hahaha

Hi, I'm new to this website but not new to the world of autographs. So far this is my favorite thread I have ever found. I was up till 3am reading every page of this thread and I can't believe how nice everyone is to each other and how awesome it is to help others with your expertise. I am looking at adding Daisy Ridley to my collection. Can anyone tell me what they think of this autograph? I really appreciate the help

That's pretty darn close.. but I've never see an example of the D being so large. Unfortunately there isn't much more to work with in her abbreviated signature and it's easily copied. See what Chuka thinks of this one.. who is the seller?

First thought without my references in front of me, is no, but I can look closer later tonight.

When a guy freshly pops up on ebay with a brand new username called "jedihope" and a bunch of Episode 7 autographs with a hodgepodge of "proof" photos that can be found on various other parts of the internet... that's a good signal to steer clear.

Agreed... thats why I asked who the seller was.  There's a finite pool of Daisy's right now and they can be pretty easily tracked.

From the Varvel exemplar file, this one is pretty close, but the huge D isn't consistent with anything I've seen.  I wouldn't buy it.

Not exactly going to take a master forger to knock off these Ridley's. Plenty of eager, impatient fans + a simple signature = forger's paradise

That Daisy in my files is from her Twitter she gave away on Christmas.
