Indeed but not a problem, if you don't intend to sell the poster, but rather
keep it. I've got a couple of autographed posters (autographed in my
presence) that are destined for my own walls.

Autographed posters are a very touchy subject.
An autograph will reduce the value of a poster for any prospective buyer who
does not collect autographs. This will become an even greater problem, when
the autograph is personalized, like "to so and so" best wishes etc..
If you are not an autograph collector yourself, you are faced with another
danger, that of buying a fake autographed poster, thus rendering it useless
to the other segment of collectors.

Subject: [MOPO] AUTOGRAPHS ON POSTERS
do autographs on posters make them more valuable? i believe that that
autographs have the opposite effect.
i have not bid on posters with autographs that I otherwise would have
bid.
presently on ebay, there is a gorgous autographed poster, although i want
it in the insert size.... LINK:

a favorite film of mine is SHADOW OF A DOUBT. i own the one sheet, and
purchased the insert from bruce 3 weeks ago. Yet, the full set on lobby
cards from this firm keeps appearing, and reappearing, and reappearing for
$2,000 with autographs. never sells.....
i always see a bogart signed one sheet of THE DESPERATE HOURS for about
900.00. it is only a 100.00 poster!!!! it never sells.
i have a neighbor who used to collect sports autographs. he stopped.
too many fakes burnt him.
YOU THOUGHTS ON AUTOGRAPHS ?????
