Well, for me, this poster is special. I'm a big fan of Into The Wild and Eddie is one of my favorite singer songwriters. Having his hard to obtain sig on this unique poster sold me. I think his sig on this ITW poster is better than any PJ poster. Just me. ITW is all Eddie.
Oh and he's a rock n' roll legend.
Not to mention, growing up in the southeast made it difficult to even encounter EV/PJ. :roll: I'm making up for it now though. See you at MSG next week!
Isn't the point of having something signed to show that YOU actually met that person and had them sign it for you. Buying something that someone else had signed for them kinda defeats the whole purpose.
Autographs have different meanings for everybody - For some of us, an Eddie Vedder autograph in our collection is a small piece of American Rock History. That may seem over the top, but if you think about it, Eddie Vedder is in the same class of front men as Mick Jagger, Bruce Springsteen, Jim Morrison - as far as importance and impact in our culture.
I wouldn't buy any of their autographs either. If they signed something for me, fine, but I'm not paying for it. to me buying someones signature makes no sense at all. Hounding people for their signature like the seller did, IMO is even worse. If you happen to see them out somewhere and they aren't busy and you have a moment, that's what makes it special. Not shoving something through a crowd of security that don't want him too in hopes he grabs it and signs it without even making eye contact. To me that's a bit insane if you ask me.

Obviously. It's comical though nonetheless. I am always intrigued in the ways of frivolous spending, like paying $100 for Eddie's autograph that isn't even worth that much on the market, if there is one.
you should have just bought this and saved yourself $85
This sounds like your boy who sold you the poster. Aren't you glad you bought something from someone that Eddie despises. I'm sure he would love to hear your story of your $100 purchase of his signature. That probably makes you feel great about that purchase.
The first link for Eddie's auto clearly says "reprint" which means it's just a copy of his real autograph. The 2nd link for the whole bands signature on the Riot Act poster looks like forgeries.

Clearly you didn't read that the print is a reprint, not the signature. Read on.
This is all very interesting! I would never recommend buying autographs off of Ebay. Ebay is notorious for fake autographs for obvious reasons. Easy money. Also a COA on Ebay means nothing as those can also be faked not to mention someone can easily copy an autograph by hand so it looks very authentic and can easily fool the COA "agencies". Also looking at both the "signed" Into The Wild posters posted in this thread those signitures look very very different. Im willing to bet at least one of those is a fake! My guess would be the first one posted by the thread starter. I've seen alot of Ed auto's over the years and also have a couple. (Not recieved via ebay.) Ive never seen any of his signatures look like this one. Especially the "E's". If it is then he has changed his signature recently. Then I would like to see some other very recent signatures to compare.
Here is one of mine. Ed's signature on top reads "thanks, peace, Eddie" Stone & Jeffs sigs are in black ink so they don't show up well in this photo. Got this after the 2006 tour.

I hear you. I'm a skeptical person as well, believe me. However, everything did checkout with the seller; autograph origin (described above), positive feedback, COA, also PSA verification, several forum members verified as well. Keep in mind this is a huge poster 27" x 40". The autograph alone is nearly 9" x 3". This size autograph may yield some subtle differences to you.

No, rlaidepeas is right. On that first link, everything is a reprint, including the signature. Clearly, it says, "The signature is actually part of the photo."

This is quoted from your link "The signature is actually part of the photo" That means it is printed into the photo - the auto is part of the picture, not an actual autograph. It's a copy from a real autograph.

Actually RedMosquito22 was the one defending it as real. I said it was a reprint.

Your comment doesn't make any sense. rlaidepeas is saying it IS a reprint. Why are we talking about this?

I think he was trying to say he understood it as the picture being a reprint (duh, aren't all pictures reprinted) but he believed the autograph to be real on it. Just that the photo is a reprint of another photo i guess - i don't know - you're right it doesn't make sense....haha

I would for $100, the price I obtained my poster for.
Good luck.

Ok, this is not for you.

For $50 more you could have had the whole bands autograph.
