Questions about autographs
How do you tell if it is autopen or Preprint? And what do you mean by ghost signer that I said people tell people a celeb has?
Re: Questions about autographs
An autopen sig is done by a machine that copies the celeb's signature. Usually you can tell because you can see multiple dots throughout the signature.drewsdarlin wrote:How do you tell if it is autopen or Preprint? And what do you mean by ghost signer that I said people tell people a celeb has?
A preprint is just a copy of a photo that has been signed. If you hold a real signature up to a light, it has a different - usually silvery - sheen to it from the rest of the photo. If it doesn't, then it's a preprint.
I'm assuming a ghost signer means someone, like a secretary, is signing pics for the celeb.
