I have inherited a vast collection of autographs from my Mother. It’s a collection that was gathered over decades of waiting outside stage doors, writing to celebrities, and also attending special signing events. There are boxes with albums full of signed photos, theatre programs, theatre leaflets, small white cards, autograph books and more of which I don’t have the room for so apart from the odd few I’m keeping the rest are up for grabs and will hopefully find a home where they will be treasured.
I check each one before selling and will advise which are genuine and which are prints. A lot are personally signed to my mother with her name on, but this will also help confirm their authenticity.
This is a genuine hand signed 5x4 photograph of Milo O'Shea. On the reverse is the date it was collected.
I have added magnified images using my jewellery eye magnifier so that you can see the pen strokes in the signature showing it's not a print. See images 4 and 5.
