I decided to ost that simply because a few days ago somebody had written about his doubts about mr. Wallach's signature.
If you pay attention, you'll also notice that in the last two weeks, autograph requests come back from him to those who had asked them in much less time than before: usually I had to wait about 2 weeks, now you can have everything back in more or less a week.
Mr. Wallach hired a secretary because of his getting an Honorary Oscar next November: at this time he's surely full of requests from fans all over the world, as well as from people who had sadly never heard of him before but now they want an autograph because he's getting an Oscar, and requests from newspapers and magazines for interviews.
Anyway, I repeat it:
ALL AUTOGRAPHS FROM MR. ELI WALLACH ARE REAL, HE OFTEN CHANGES THE WAY OF WRITING SOME LETTERS, BUT HE STILL SIGNS PERSONALLY. THE SECRETARY'S TASK IS ONLY THE ONE OF MAKING THINGS FASTER IN THIS PARTICULAR TIME, IN WHICH HE IS RECEIVING MANY AND MANY REQUESTS, DUE TO HIS OSCAR APPOINTMENT NEXT NOVEMBER!
I hope I've been clear enough, bye.

In answer to the "why post this" question, if we can't comment on authenticity on the Feedback forum unless invited the board becomes useless unless there is somewhere where these things can be discussed.

It's a policy I respect but don't necessarily agree with. There is a thread on here about who is sec TTM, but it's a right shambles.

Thanks for posting, it's a real shame for collectors, but should be given a huge amount of respect for keeping on signing for such a long time.
