Re: [MOPO] David Prowse signature on a Star Wars Birthday Cake poster
Thanks again for all the input. After further thought I feel that as a SW fan and poster collector that I would rather have Prowse sign one of my Vader Carded Figures and keep the Birthday Cake poster unsigned. Since I can't get all the cast to sign each of their images on the poster I think it would look weird to have just his on it. Plus, I would rather not take the chance of something happening to the poster where I would regret ever taking it with me. A still, DVD box set, Star Wars Novel and carded figure would make more sense to get signed as a SW fan. Thanks again for all your help. websites: http://www.myspace.com/shaunluuhorrorfest http://www.myspace.com/jeffrey_meyer www.myspace.com/35mmbrewandview Date: Sat, 23 Jun 2012 11:33:31 -0400 From: dli...@aol.com Subject: Re: [MOPO] David Prowse signature on a Star Wars Birthday Cake poster To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Do not get it signed. fwiw, we probably sell more vintage Star Wars posters than anyone in the galaxy.

A little known fact is that Harrison Ford hated signing autographs. Fox had someone on staff who signed for him, and most of Harrison's autographed items were done by this Fox employee. To this day, many "experts" believe the employee autograph is Harrison's real signature. Fakes are rampant in the SW world. On Prowse's web site, he shows a lot fake Prowse autographs. He is very angry about fake autographs and doesn't even show his signature on his site for fear of providing conmen with a template.

Re: [MOPO] David Prowse signature on a Star Wars Birthday Cake poster
I suspect that in many cases it depends on whether the poster or the autograph is the rarer item. A Gilda one-sheet goes for much more money that a Rita Hayworth autograph. I imagine that having Rita's autograph on the poster in a non-obtrusive place would not detract from the look or value of the poster, but I don't think it would necessarily increase the value of it either. Given how rare/ valuable that poster is, I imagine that on a given day if an autographed copy came to auction it could fetch more... or less than whatever the prior sale had been, but most likely the purchaser would be a poster collector, rather than an autograph collector. If it were a copy of Some Like It Hot, autographed by Billy Wilder, Jack Lemmon or Tony Curtis, the same might be true. If it were autographed by Marilyn Monroe, I suspect it would increase the value tremendously. But in the latter case the value of that poster to poster collectors, would be trumped by its value to Marilyn Monroe collectors. In the same way a copy of Help signed by each of the Beatles might well garner more money than an unsigned copy... but not from the typical poster collector. David Prowse is just not in that league. The first Toy Story film was made more than 15 years ago and I played on the Soundtrack. At one of the scoring sessions, I brought an advance one-sheet as I often do for projects that I'm working on. I left it in the booth for Randy Newman to sign. John Lassiter and Steve Jobs were there that day too and seeing Randy sign it, they joined in. They were the Director and Producer after all. I really had no idea who they were. I now have plenty of things that Randy and John have signed, but nothing else signed by Steve Jobs. It was the only film he took a producing credit for during his time running Pixar. While a Toy Story advance has some value, I think this one might be worth more because of the Job's autograph. - Original Message - From: "channinglylethomson" To: Sent: Saturday, June 23, 2012 10:03 AM Subject: Re: [MOPO] David Prowse signature on a Star Wars Birthday Cake poster I agree about the David Prowse autograph on this poster.

Re: [MOPO] David Prowse signature on a Star Wars Birthday Cake poster
Also there is an inherent lack of provenance in a poster--even if you take a photo. I like The Marx Brothers and Houdini enough to get their autographs, but if I am going to pay that much I'll get it on a contract or letterhead as legal documents can't be beat. Posters just seem lessened in value and I always wonder if the signatures are authentic. Like the Duck Soup posters supposedly signed by Groucho--how would you prove he signed that if it was being sold today? -Daniel On Jun 23, 2012, at 10:03, channinglylethomson wrote: > I agree about the David Prowse autograph on this poster.

Sad but true, as an investment, a Prowse signature would probably devalue the poster. -Original Message- From: Richard C Evans [mailto:evan...@mac.com] Sent: Friday, June 22, 2012 03:29 PM To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Subject: Re: [MOPO] David Prowse signature on a Star Wars Birthday Cake poster The issue of signed posters came up a while back. Think general consensus was that they're not particularly favoured. I tend to think they look out of place on posters.I've got a few signed that mean something to me, though perhaps not to others if it came to selling them. I also recall David mentioning a Psycho poster signed by Janet Leigh to him. I don't know how Star Wars collectors would feel about that poster signed by Prowse, but don't imagine his sig is rare, does a lot of fairs I'd have thought.

Re: [MOPO] David Prowse signature on a Star Wars Birthday Cake poster
The issue of signed posters came up a while back. Think general consensus was that they're not particularly favoured. I tend to think they look out of place on posters. I've got a few signed that mean something to me, though perhaps not to others if it came to selling them. I also recall David mentioning a Psycho poster signed by Janet Leigh to him. I don't know how Star Wars collectors would feel about that poster signed by Prowse, but don't imagine his sig is rare, does a lot of fairs I'd have thought. Guinness for instance may be a different matter, though obviously that's not an option.

Re: [MOPO] David Prowse signature on a Star Wars Birthday Cake poster
I would have him sign a still instead of the poster.
