autographs with authenticity

[winniescards]

I went to a local card show today and I picked up an official 1993-94 Chicago Blackhawks calendar.The cover has a picture of the Chicago Stadium with 1929-1994 printed across the front.There are a lot of great pictures inside and there are a total of 24 hand signed autographs.Many hall of famer and many that will be hall of famers and after just doing a goggle search one auto is of a very recently deceased player.Now I have no way of proving that these autos are by the people that they are supposed to be of.But they certainly look like the real deal to me.A couple of the players signed in a couple different spots.That is how there are 24 autos.I think only 20 different players.
Now than my question is would this carry much value since I did not have this done myself and there fore have no real proof of the autographs.Or is this something that is quite valuable.Some of the player I have received in person autos of and they do do look like the same auto as the ones that I have.PLMK what your thoughts might be on something like this.
Thanks,Winston.

Winston,
I'm sure you could give the HHOF a call and ask them who they use to authenticate historic items. The could refer you to someone who would provide a certificate of authenticity that would be accepted within the hobby. It ultimately may not be worth the effort and funds, but it's a unique collectable nonetheless.

Thanks a lot for the lead.I know I can compare a few with ones I have collected in person myself.Thanks,Winston.

You can also post a few pictures of the items. There are more than a few unofficial autograph experts around here.

That is a great idea.I will do some scans.Thanks,Winston.

Pictures have now been put up.For any of you auto experts,PLMK what you think.I am of the opinion that they are all real.I think that they must be all real or all fake.But PLMK what you think.Thanks,Winston.

Winston, I'd be of the opinion that they are definately all real. The Hull, Hall, Chelios, Mikita, Goulet and Tony O are legit for sure so I would imagine the others would be as well. That doesn't prove they are but most hobbyist's would concur I'm sure.

The Bobby Hull, Tony Esposito, Stan Mikita, Dennis Hull and Chris Chelios look legit to me. The others are probably real but I can't say for sure as I'm not as familiar with the sigs.

 

[winniescards]

That is great to have some of you agree with me.It is really important that they are real since 'Mush" March just passed away this pass week.So he will not be signing any more for sure.I think I got a really good deal on the item and now just to find a die hard Blackhawk fan to sell it to.Thanks guys for your opinion,Winston.

As a guy who does autographs,I say no issues with the autographs.
I have a March autograph if you need to compare to.
Very nice BlackHawks piece.
