>From my earliest years of collecting movie posters, it was a common belief among collectors and dealers alike that probably stars' autographs on movie posters or lobby cards definitely de-valued the piece. In fact, on many occasions restorers would be requested to remove the autograph when the poster was linen-backed. Of course in rare occasions...for instance, if the poster was autographed by Jean Harlow or Carole Lombard or Greta Garbo...this might not be the case. But in most instances, I've always heard that an autograph definitely does not make a movie poster more valuable... Rick
