Connery

Opinion ?

Are you asking if this is an authentic shawn connery?

Since it's in the authenticity forum, I assume they want to know if it's an authentic SEAN Connery. ;)

That doesn't look authentic to me. The overall look doesn't match authentic in person autographs. For example the C in Connery is very off, it doesn't loop right if that makes sense.

According to the dealer it was signed IP so I find this....odd

Just cause a dealer says it was signed in person doesn't say anything really, they could just be lying. Sean Connery's autograph is often forged.
Are they a UACC registered dealer? What other items do they have for sale, and do those look authentic? Did they say when it was signed? (Sean Connery's autographed has changed a bit over the years. And in the last 10 years or so he hardly ever signed anything).

But either way it's just my opinion about the autograph.

Here are a few examples for you to compare it to yourself.

It came from bondcollectibles :neutral:

wow, that sure is interesting. In my eyes the autograph looks off compared to others I've seen, and I personally wouldn't feel comfortable with purchasing it. But like I said, it's just my opinion about the autograph. I could be wrong.

On a side note: they even say themselves on the website that 80-90% of the Sean Connery autographs on the market are fake, so unless they actually saw him signing it in front of them (which I doubt they did, but could be possible I guess) then it's just an educated guess about it's authenticity on their part also.

That autograph is forged 100%,after a while it's easy to tell the difference.

Hey folks -- this is my first post, but I have been lurking on the boards for quite a while.....lots of great help out here!!!
Anyway, I hope it's not in poor form for my first post to be a request for help, but I am looking at a Sean Connery autograph that looks good to my eyes.....but I am definitely not an expert. Would anyone be willing to take a look at the autograph below and let me know your opinion?



Thanks for the help!!!
