Secretarial Autographs

[cards918]

Are secretarials worth anything?

I know they arent worth as much as an authentic but are they worth more than a pre print or an autopen?

thanks

Nope they are worth less or about the same as a pp or ap. At least a pp or ap is an actual copy of the real thing. A secretarial is really nothing more than a 'legitimate' forgery.

PP = worthless
AP = worthless
sec = worthless

In theory, secretarial autographs should be worth nothing as they are just a forgery of the original. However, you do see them being on sale on auctions sites such as ebay. It is really sad to see people being scammed with sec- autographs but sometimes it is due to the buyer's believe that the autograph is authentic (e.g. they will buy a Kiefer Sutherland sec- as they believe his TTM are authentic).

Hi!

Secretarials are worth the least of all the types of "autographs" there is - $0. Even preprints and autopens would be worth more due to the photo and the nice-looking copy of an autograph printed on it. {thumb2} But secretarials is like an unknown person's autograph - you wouldn't want to buy or sell it as it isn't worth anything. :neutral:
