i hate to be the bearer of bad news but they are not real. If you have any doubts in the future Syrinx and myself can point you in the right direction of "real" autographs.

Yeah, that's the unframed, plate-signed version of the one I have. Mine is from the original run of 500 hand-signed prints, and there's also an artist's proof run of 50 that are hand-signed. Those all come with paperwork. The plate-signed ones have printed signatures.

Ya sorry but there are so many fake sigs on Ebay and elsewhere. It used to drive me nuts but now I can't be bothered trying to fight it. I, like Glenn and a few others, have been collecting Rush autographs for a long, long time. I really feel bad when I see someone get taken. You have a great attitude about it and it is definitely the thought that counts - a very nice gesture by your friend. That Power Windows litho is an example of correct real signatures. Just compare with yours. Here is a used by Neil, and signed in person by all 3, drum head from my collection that also shows legit autographs.

While I am at it, here is a closer look at my avatar - bass head used by Neil on the Hemispheres tour. On the left is one of 3 heads he signed for record company execs upon the release of the first Burning For Buddy cd and a very rare signed stick.

Actually, the Neil and Geddy signatures on that record look possibly genuine. It's the Alex one that is obviously not like any I've seen. I have seen other items where one or two sigs look right and not the third.

I disagree but you are welcome to your opinion. All 3 are fake.

I know i've posted this before.

Being a fan since 1977 i've collected loads of Rush stuff & still have all my original vinyl but this is my favourite piece, just better than my signed 2112 album cover signed by all three & my signed copy of Roadshow. The reason being this was my 1st ever concert...12th June 1977

EDIT: I totally forgot about the Andrew Macnaughtan print of Neil under a bridge autographed by Neil.

This is my favorite item. It includes the poster, commemorative tickets, VIP laminates and poster, 11X14 picture of my 13 yr old daughter and myself in the front row (by Geddy's right knee), and a signed cd by all 3 members.

I'm relieved I wasn't the first messenger on that one, although I've seen worse.

 

 

That bass head (The Hemi) is awesome. I love authentic old school stuff like that as opposed to custom retro.

 

 

 

That Scotland poster is awesome too. First UK Tour yes?

 

 

 

Oldest poster I have is what I THINK might be a Hemispheres Euro promo poster, but I'm not sure.

 

It was folded in an album I picked up at a store, but it wasn't the usual poster you find in there because that was in there too.

It's just the album cover and what I think is the euro catalog number.

 

I'd love to get some Clockwork Angels promo posters/flats, but I haven't come across any.

Thanks Syrinx :)

 

I should have dug this out and compared the sigs to my friend's gift before posting the previous photo, but I do have this signed tourbook collection, bought from the Rush store, which is carefully packed away and rarely taken out like this.

If those aren't real I don't want to know :LOL:
