I'm a big collector of Anne's works in all forms: hardback, paperbook, and bookclub editions; US and UK editions; and all the different cover art I can get my hands on. I'm even starting to branch out to foreign language editions, though my good friend Hans is the master of that particular collecting bent.
This forum is for talking about collecting, asking about interesting book versions you've come across, asking what a certain book might be valued at, and even offering books in trade. Whether you're new to collecting or this is all old hat, I hope you'll enjoy sharing your passion for collecting here! We've established a rule for posting about interesting eBay auctions: Since you never know if a MoM member already has their eye on a particular auction and may therefore not want it advertised so widely, please only post about an eBay item that no one has bid on yet. Thanks! Last edited by Cheryl; May 16 2006 at 03:36 PM. |

Authenticating Anne's signature
In recent years, our membership has seen a number of Anne McCaffrey's books on eBay with highly suspicious signatures. Please be aware that there are almost for certain forgeries out there, some knowingly sold and others where the seller was duped by their source. What can you do to check on the authenticity of a purported signature? 1. Check it against the signatures on file at Tom Folio. Please note that those of us with items signed recently (as of Sept 2007) can verify that Anne's signature still looks the same as these samples. It has not changed with her advancing years. 2. If a picture of the signature in question is viewable online, post about it here for member opinions. A number of us own quite a number of signed books, and have become fairly familiar with her signature. We're also happy to share our opinions -- please keep in mind though that these are opinions and not guarantees.
