used equus address

i posted this as a success in "via venue feedback." now there is a question about authenticity.

what do you think??

My guess is secretarial... his signature looks different now, and the fact that his first name is similar to his signature from the early harry potter days... not recent.

It's very hard to say, because he signed it in the office, not in a rushed environment. We are only able to see his authentic auto from premieres and outside theater. Here is just some examples of his authentic auto from previous Equus in UK.



Anyway, i still think this success could be authentic!

Wow what a messy sig....I would love to have!!!! {love}

Sorry to say, after compairing I dont think its authentic, I really wish it was

I would say it's authentic - it compares pretty good to the IP examples.

If it was secretarial, I would think there would have been more responses by now. Since the show started, I've only heard of 2 responses from him (yours being one of them). If someone else was signing for him, they'd do more than 2.

Really, there is another one. I would like to see that. Where did you find it, another website?

Hi Nathan!

I'm pretty sure it's authentic. Your autograph compares very good to the scans superletterfan kindly posted - from the "D", "R" to the messy end in "cliffe", it's all to um, messy just like Radcliffe's authentic autograph! A sec would never be able to pull of that end of "Radcliffe", it's too much of a "specific" scribble which compares perfectly to other in person ones.

So I say you have nothing to worry about (and you're super lucky!), it looks very much authentic to me! {thumb2}

I'm not an expert.
But the siggy matches quite exactly the preprint they send out now from "Order of the Phoenix". There would'nt be any sense a secretary signing for a preprint.
So I think it's authentic

I think most of you forget one thing. In case of a high-profile actor/actress, the secretary spends WEEKS matching his/her autograph. Now although I am no expert on Radcliffe's autograph, I tend to agree with mharm2k6. The signature looks too much "young Harry Potter" to me.

Also AFAIK the show starts TOMORROW so there is absolutely nothing wrong with "just" 2 successes. In fact, even if this is an authentic signature, I believe that under the loads of mail that await Daniel in the following weeks he will very quickly start sending out secs/ap's/pp's and other failures.
