The Augers you posted look similar to scans I've seen from 02-04. Even autographs from before then do show inconsistencies amongst signing. Do you have a scan of yours? Its difficult to have anything to compare because she so rarely does in person signings.
I recently bought a small collection of Bond signatures from a private collector. Would appreciate your input on their authenticity, especially ...Timothy Dalton.
Hello, I'm new to collecting and to the forum and was hoping I could get a few of your esteemed opinions on this. I understand "DC" signed his full name early in his 007 career, but haven't been able to to find any like this. Would YOU buy it as authentic?
Having read through this thread I've discovered there are doubts over some of the stuff from Bondcollectibles. Purchased a couple of photos from there yesterday - does anyone know if they're good?
Suppose it would serve me right for going for the cheapest ones at about £60 each!
Looks very similar to TTM I received in January. Similar looping on the l and d. The A in Auger is similar as well. This differs from the example you posted though, which looks like a normal capital print A.
Bit of a tangent as this is less about the autograph than the actor:
IMDb lists George Roubicek as being in both YOLT and SWLM but I have a hard time believing these are, in fact, the same guy:
I personally wouldn't buy autographs from ebay. I did this once for a signed Sean Connery photo about 10 years ago. Cost £40. Luckily I went to a memorabilia fair a few days later and I showed it to a dealer there. He said it was a fake. I managed to get a refund! I've got George Lazenby's which I know is genuine as he signed it for me! I was also dead jammy last year when I went to watch Judi Dench and Ben Wishaw in Peter and Alice. While I was queuing for the matinee, Judi got out of a taxi and stood next to me. I managed to have a brief chat and she signed a photo of M I had.
I've got a couple of autographed photos I wouldn't mind you guys looking at. One is of all the Bonds to date and the other is a skyfall picture with a few of the cast. I will have to figure out how to get them on here though, think I used to have flickr....
Hello all. Can anyone tell me if this Timothy Dalton autograph is real or fake? I've had it in my collection a while, bought on ebay. Never been sure... Many thanks.

Fake. Several letter shapes/strokes are off, not known to sign just "T," always "Timothy."
I would have to agree with PoorMansJB, it isn't quite right I'm afraid, although he did very very occasionally sign T. Dalton, the composition of the letters isn't quite right, sorry to say!
Good luck with your collecting! -{
Gentlemen, many thanks for confirming that - I wasn't sure myself but always suspected it might be a fake. At least I know my one of Rog is genuine (signed in person and what a gent), and Danny was bought from a reputable source.
TDalt is my favourite Bond, along with Dan and Rog, so I'm hoping to add his sig to my collection at some point.
I also have a genuine George Baker, who dubbed Lazenby as Hilary Bray...

I do hope Bondtoys hasn't seen this thread...

Thanks in advance for any and all help!

Auger is from 2000-02 period.......as you can see it's not "spelled out" like recent ones seem to be.
When I get a moment, I'll upload my signature.

Ten years later he looks twenty years younger. The magic of "Hollywood."

The Auger card gives me a better vibe.......
Bondcollectibles rarely handles signed cards so thinking it wouldn't have come from Alex.

At least try to put some effort into it
