How to go about getting signatures verfied?

First off apologies if this is the wrong section, I've read the rules and since I'm not trying to sell anything, I think I should be okay? Some years ago, I was at an auction and I picked up an 11-signature Nemesis poster. The other posters from the seller all had COAs with them except this Trek poster, so I felt comfortable spending the $40 on it despite it not having one, especially as someone who had just discovered the series. Here I am after multiple moves and locations and I've decided to investigate a bit more and possibly sell it.

Obviously the first step is to get these signatures verified, but wasn't sure which route was the best; is PSA the best way to verify these? I tried also looking for similar items to check value, but came up empty there as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi


I'm not sure someone would bother to fake that many signatures, of actors a lot of people don't actually know who they are, on a poster for Nemesis, since it wouldn't be worth as much as a Ocean's Twelve poster signed by the entire cast.

I googled Patrick Stewart's signature and it seems to be a match. It's probably authentic.

On that note, I could see where it might even cost more to authenticate all of those signatures than the poster might be worth.
 
That's what I came across years ago when I first looked into it. This past week I checked into it really quick on PSA's site and they asked for the "primary" signers last name and # of signatures, so I used Patrick Stewarts and it came back with $100 plus shipping. Not knowing how valuable signed stuff is(seems like signatures are pretty freely given out for Trek), I wasn't quite sure. I may give them an email with better info for a better quote.

That was my thinking as well, every signature matched up from what I could find and I don't see why someone would do the others
