The only problem is 95% of Streisand autographed photos are
secretarial. One of ther ex-employees confirmed she will sign about 1
out of about 1000 maik autograh requests. That was about 10 years ago,
not sure if she signs anything herself anymore. COA;s are worthless
unless they come from a reputable dealer that will gaurantee the
authenticity for life. The best you can do to "almost" certainty of
it's authenticity is to be certified by the TWO recognized "Reputable"
autograph authentication services, PSA or JSA. Here's s hint. Watch
all the eBay auction. Most of the ebay signed photos will sell for
about $50-100, but if you see a PSA autographed photo it will gofor
4-5 times that. It is estimated 90% of ALL autogroahs on eBay are
fake and about 99% for the high end pieces like Elvis, Marilyn Monroe,
Sinatra, John Wayne, etc. SOmeone posted a John Wayne autographed
photo on eBay in THIS forum . When I went to look at it , it had
already been removed by eBay for not being authentic. This was
because someone must have submitted to PSA Quick opinion which if it
fails, eBay will remove it.

Subject: [MOPO] Barbra Streisand info needed
Hey all..
Need advice. We are going to donate an elegantly framed
autographed color portrait of Barbra Streisand to our
granddaughter's school benefit auction. The photo is accompanied
by a COA. The framing is very high end, with gorgeous triple
matting. We have a pretty good idea of the cost of the framing.
What would the color autographed photo with COA be worth? This
will help them determine where to start the bidding. Thanks, Diana
...and Happy Thanksgiving to all!!!
