Signed lithograph of Original cast-thoughts on authenticity?

[sushijin]

This piece was authorized by Scoreboard, and has a COA signed by Ken Goldin, back in 1996. It's a limited series of 500. Anybody know anything about it? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

What does the COA say about the signatures? Is each piece hand signed by the actors, or done by machine?

Signed, not machine. Plus I saw another piece from this series where the sigs are slightly different enough to rule out autopen or machine, but very similar in style to this one.

I'd recommend checking around and seeing what dealers are selling it for.

Autopen, that was the word I was fumbling around for. Do you really like the piece? Because I am super critical by nature. I find even the smallest faults in things, which is very irritating. For example, Scotty's ears don't look right, Uhura's head is too big for her body, and Chekov looks more like Davy Jones. And don't get me started on those yellow shirts. There is an unsigned one on ebay going for $9.99, it makes one wonder how much the autographs are worth.

Anyway, everybody is an art critic so my opinion isn't worth 2 cents.

For me, unless I'm present with the actor/s signing the 10x4 in person - there's always a niggling and persistent doubt reference the autenticity of the signature, even with certificates.
