Bette Davis, Any Help Would Be Much Appreciated

Unread post by ItsPerfection »

Okay, I just purchased this. :mrgreen: I am in question about it's authenticity. :? I know for a fact that Bette used to send this specific photo of herself to her fans in her later years. What do any of you think? Anyone's opinion would be much appreciated {??}
Thank You !

BTW: I didn't take these pictures.

She was known to send out secretarials, but yours doesn't look like the secretarials I've seen. It compares favorably with the authentics I've seen....so I'm leaning towards authentic.

I know this is going to sound like wishful thinking but I really do feel that it's authentic. The signature is a bit shaky and the secretarial ones are not at all. Thank you very much for your helpful opinion and links :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Yes, she did mostly mail out secretarials BUT due to the shakiness of the signature it could be real.
By the way why did you purchase this if you weren't sure it was authentic?

I rarely do this, but I bid on it on Ebay. The reason why I bid on it was because it was listed wrong so I got it for less than 30 dollars which is pretty amazing :mrgreen:
