On 9/9/13, I wrote Sir Michael Caine with a TTM request, sending a 3x5 card for signing, $2 USD for return postage, and an SSAE. Received his reply today, 10/28/13, with my 3x5 signed "Michael Caine." His address can be found at fanmail.biz, and this is 1 of 2 replies received today. It's getting colder on the Plains..............best regards to all!

I truly wish that I had that capability, my friend. The negative aspect of that would be numerous scans from me at one time. I believe the phrase "Be careful what you wish for, you might just get it...." would apply here...................as for the "secretarial response," there is no way of truly knowing UNLESS you're right there when they sign........ah, the pitfalls of collecting autographs through the mail.......

nice reply pat

Sorry Pat, but you can tell if a signature is secretarial by studying signature/handwriting styles and signing habits. Daz (our host on this forum) performed an in depth study of Michael Caine's genuine and secretrial signatures. Hh really could help you find out the truth.

Here's Daz's piece on isitreal.com - a site all ttm collectors should take note of -

If it's genuine then it's a cracker, Pat.
I hope you don't mind me butting in on this thread Pat but, maybe Daz can tell me if the sig I got from Michael Caine in the mid eighties is a sec. It would be nice to know for sure.

Well, my being incorrect on a matter of fact isn't new, but it just proves that you learn something new every day.......THANKS for the correction, though...
