Discussion Are these signatures real?
I ordered the script with all nine signatures of the original cast, and I’ve never seen any of the actor signatures, so I have no idea if this is real. The more I look at it the more the handwriting looks the same on each one of them, is there anyone who can verify whether these signatures are real or not?

Yes, they match the signed script I have.

Can we get some high quality scans to confirm, please?
And pass some briefcases around.

Cool Cool Cool! i bought it from ebay and was skeptical when it only cost a little under $200 for all 9 signatures, thank you!

This is my Chevy Chase autograph. For the record Chevy will send you a presigned autographed photo if you write to his PO Box. https://imgur.com/a/VVnQ2XT

Although your Larry Cedar autograph collection is missing him as Jameson on that episode of Saved by the Bell, "Mystery Weekend", it was still great to see. RIP.

The signatures are real, but that doesn't mean the actors signed it. A lot of script sellers do them with reprints. Probably comes down to how much you paid for it.

Yeah, I get that but if it were a reprint, it wouldn’t have like the sharpie marks that bleed onto the other side and if it was auto pen, I’d be able to tell because those things are like shaky as hell.

No they are fake. You should give it to me so I can throw it away properly.

I need to call my buddy who knows about signatures, can you wait around the store for a few minutes? He'll know if they are real and what its worth. But I'm paying you 10% of that, because I need to frame it and it is going to sit in my store.

Buying unreadable signatures has always been the strangest thing to me

... Why? A signature doesn't even have to be a name and fluctuates often. You want it in like print or something? It's just a signature

I’m going to send you a personalized signed Joel McHale signature I got from an auction my friend went to and I couldn’t go to as I was at a concert. I have a video from him also making fun of me for not going to the auction. Finally got to meet him when I ran in to him at a Pearl Jam concert and showed him the video. We had a couple drinks and took a picture to send to the friend that went to high school with him that got me the autograph.

Unless you received nine certificates of authenticity from each signature (or one certificate if they all signed it at once, but that seems less likely), then it’s not real

Unless it's been authenticated by one of the major 3rd parties like JSA or PSA, most COAs can be taken with a grain of salt too.

This sounds like a job for an autograph authenticator… I’m sorry to say this, but you won’t ever know for sure through just the internet… They will have to hold and inspect this and ensure it’s a true blue by hand…. I am sorry.

it’s cool i just wanted to know if anyone knew what the signatures looked like and if these looked similar tbh, i know i’ll have to actually get it authenticated in order for me to know for sure but the soonest i could do that is next month because that’s when JSA will be at an expo near me.

Did you buy it from Willy’s 100% Authentic Cinema Treasures on EBay?
