Beware fakes

If there is one subject that really winds me up, it is the selling of FAKE Laurel and Hardy autographs on eBay. It had been fairly quiet for a while on eBay after the news got out of a successful prosecution for selling a fake Stan Laurel autograph by trading standards officers. The seller was fully investigated and they found many more forgeries. It made quite a lot of newspapers. RED ALERT. Our expert Dave Tomlinson has been finding quite a few fake 'Laurel and Hardy Autographs' on eBay and several people have been stung already. This new scam is related to fake autographs on autograph book pages, many with copied vignette stickers. We will reveal the story soon on all 'Laurel and Hardy News outlets', so in the meantime play safe, and visit our guide page. BUT...some of these are CLEVER (well not that clever as Dave spotted them) fakes, so personally I would not take a chance. Nothing gets round Dave's detective work and he knows who the prime forger is. All I can say is they are risking TRADING STANDARDS officers knocking on their door. We will not let up our crusade against fakes; so do visit our guide page to help you: VISIT OUR BUYER BEWARE PAGE: http://www.laurelandhardy.org/autographs.html A full report on this new scam will appear once Dave has completed his investigations.
