Scum & Villainy:

Anthony Daniels' autograph is not available from this site or from Artists First.

But forgeries of his signature are widely available.

It is not just Anthony's name that is regularly forged.
We see many examples of fakes,
supposedly signed by other personalities.

The difference is that
Anthony does something about it
.

This makes some dealers very unhappy.

They say bad things about him.
Well they would, wouldn't they.

V
arious dealers, organisations and individuals in stores, on the Web and elsewhere think that owning a Sharpie pen gives them the right to cheat the fans.

This includes people who ask if they can be photographed with Anthony as he signs their single item. They later use this 'photographic proof' as evidence to support them selling
hundreds of fakes.


As for Certificates of Authenticity...
they're literally not worth the paper they're written on.

And of course, buying from any web site that doesn't display a clear photo of the actual autograph, or a statement as to what signatures are included,
is just another way of living stupidly
.

If you find a dubious autograph - join with many other fans in the battle against the Darkside - show the Webmaster and we will expose it on this site a
nd add your name to the contributors credits.

You may wish to make your own judgement, but, whilst far from being a definitive list, inclusion of a seller's name on this page is no indication of their fraudulent intent.

It is merely a statement that, whether or not they are aware of the fact, the autograph in question is, in our opinion
,
a forgery.


We are sure they are one-off mistakes...
but please admire these examples of gross errors in taste and manners, perpetrated by someone...
somewhere.


Remember... The Dark Side will be with us...
always!

 

"Excellent... autographed photo by STAR WARS CAST... all are preprinted ... and includes a certificate and guarantee."

WARNING

Apparently, in an attempt to discredit this site, our friends at
NE AUTOGRAPHS
,
who featured here just a few days ago (see below) have come back with a novel - if still dyslexic - approach which shows AD signing something, as if to prove they are not selling a forgery (which they are).

Their advert shows a photo and NOT the poster they claim has his genuine autograph (which It doesn't).

Are they confused as well as atrocious spellers? Why don't they just mug old ladies for a living or at least take evening classes in English language?

"Star Wars Orginal (sp) Movie Poster x14 Harrison Ford. Details: This is a "Star Wars" movie poster hand signed by Anthony Daniels…All signatures are hand signed and Guaranteed to be Authentic. All my items come from private signings, premieres, promos and private collections, obtained by myself and very reputable dealers we purchase from. They are not preprints, reprints, copies, or facesmile."

"This Lobby photo is ... HAND SIGNED in silver by Anthony

(sp. coincidentally same as the advert below!).

So just two comments here. Alec Guinness seems a very new way of spelling Anthony Daniels.
And did the great Jedi knight use a silver pen on the rare occasions he signed his name at all?

Interesting - not really - to see this arthritic scribble in a store in the Downtown Disney complex, Orlando.

The Mickey Mouse staff fiercely denied they were selling a fake and kept it on display. They stopped us photographing other dubious examples of their handywork, or someone's handywork, certainly not AD's.

So go to Florida, enjoy the orange juice, buy your forgeries in person and hear Walt turning in his freezer.

"... movie poster handsigned in person by cast members... Anthony Daniels...We only offer authentic material..."

Sorry. As usual with offerings from this vendor we can't see a signature that resembles AD's (who acted in all the Star Wars movies).

So he didn't sign this poster.

It should be pointed out to people dim enough to be persuaded otherwise by the accompanying pic of AD actually signing, that he is actually signing a photo!

Keep trying AMP.
