Hi these are fan club secretarials. Signed by the fc, not the band.

I don't think the office are admitting to these secretarials still are they?   An odd turn out.

What do you mean? Sorry didn't get it. Could you eventually explain as English is not my first language. Thank you so much ☺️

These are not signed by the band. Most bands have fan clubs. Unfortunately Queen's fan club (like many others) signed signatures for the band and gave them to fans. Matt was asking if the fan club admitted to doing that over the years.

Aaaah. Okay....well lost ££££. I am guessing that I am not very lucky. I get coa and they said the same unfortunately. And so I am continuing searching. 

And what about this one? I think that this is not original...well I am not expect obviously, but never saw signature like this from Freddie before...BTW how you guys can tell or recognise. Unbelievable!!! Bless you?

That is a 70s attempt on a photo from the 80s, not genuine. I've been studying queen's hand since my first show in 1974. I don't give too many details out on why graphs are not genuine so I don't help potential forgers. But it's taken a lot of years to get to that point. I can send you a message with advice on where to look if you like.

Hi. Thank you for your reply. Even I was thinking that this one is not genuine. And of course I do understand that you don't want to give too much details of your unbelievable skills gained through all that years. I am just massive Queen fan since I was 3 years old. Groing in communist country we was not allowed to listen to this music but my parents was always trying to learn me what good music is even wgwn they could be badly punished. Then I moved to England 5 years ago and for my first salary I bought tickets to London, also bought candle and flowers and went to lay them in to garden Lodge. And it became my every year habit. Now I am earning better money so I was saving for a while so I wanted to buy something what belongs to Freddie or even autograph. Unfortunately I chose bad times as after the movie everyone is mad about this things. So if you know wherever I could potentially buy genuine stuff I would be really thankful and greatful for that info. Thank you!!!!

BTW you are sooooooo lucky...that you could see Freddie sing. I would give everything what I have to live that moment ❤️

There are some great auction houses that have had some excellent stage worn and rare pieces. I'll add you and shoot you a list.

So...are you definitely sure, that it's genuine and I should get it? Plus he is also having drum stick from that evening. They was actually support band for Mott the Hoople in Odeon in Worcester. He said that he is older and he wants to find good home for it. And he offered also drum stick from Roger in that price.

The set you private messaged me is genuine but none you posted in this thread are. Not sure why this was added to this thread, but the full set from the 70s on paper and the stick are good for that price, yes.
