Hi,
I'm probably going to regret asking this, but i was wondering whether anyone can tell me if these are authentic. I purchased it from ebay several years ago, before i had found this site, from a seller called "dream art". He said it was from a private collection and had originally been obtained from someone on the film crew. (I was given a name and it did check out, but that doesnt mean it was true.) I have compared the Benicio Del Toro autograoh to another i have of his, and it looks a good match. Hence buying the photo.
What does anyone else think?

Don't have the time right now to do a detailed analysis, but just looking really quickly at the Kevin Spacey, that is not close at all to his IPs (or authentic TTMs).

Hi
Thanks both for your comments. I agree with you both. I thought the Benicio Del Toro looked authentic which is why i bought it. However since seeing other successes from Kevin Spacey, it doesnt look authentic. Seems strange that they would fake some and not others. Esp as i did not pay much for it, so it made no difference to the value of it! Just wish i knew about the others.

Some people may get one authentic on a cast photo and then forge the rest to make it lok more appealing to buy, however entire cast photos like this are a rarity so this should be a warning sign.
However I think all the sigs here are fake. Kevin's in definately a lame forgery, no question.
