Really love what Randy was working on this evening. Would snatch a print of it without a second thought and it's not even finished yet.

Dead Ringers OGs are up. I dare someone to buy the gynecological tools for a wife :twisted: you must post a video of her opening it for the bonus points.

I never buy anything on eBay, but when I went to see Graveyard in Boston, they didn't have a print for the gig, and I loved the Horkey/Holt collaboration so much, I needed to have it. After I bought it, I noticed some images online that have much different signatures than mine.

Mine is similar to Horkey's signature in the 2nd picture, with the same placement, and Holt's is on the other side of the show info. Just got me nervous that I may have purchased a counterfeit. Can anyone confirm which is real, or if maybe they both are?

I've only been collecting for a couple of years, so don't know much about how frequently people try to counterfeit posters. Thanks to anyone who can shine some light!

Mine is like the latter, with signatures created using a dip pen.

One thing that comes to mind, but I'm only spitballing here, perhaps Brandon and Aaron signed the copies that went to the concert with just a regular white pencil, and the copies held for the VACVVM, they took the extra time to sign with a pen?
Do you know where the seller got it from?

I don't know where the seller got it, but I got mine after failing on the online release, so your theory definitely makes sense. Thanks again!

I thought they were all like the second one. I think he posted something on IG at one point about enjoying playing around with that new pen.

Yeah, it was this post:



But that was like 10ish days after the concert. So could either have just been an old photo, or it's as i theorized, and he only a editioned the show allotment up front with pencil, and later did the remainder with pen. *shrugs* That would explain it at least. I wouldn't jump to the counterfeit conclusion just yet. Does anyone have a show copy that could verify?

Who would counterfeit that print?

TCOBrien - you have one from the show. Definitely not a counterfeit.
