Dear Fellow-Cohenites,

I am just being curious (and hope there is not already a similar thread on the forum!): Have you got any Leonard autographs? If so, are they personalized? Where did you get them from?
To make a start, I will add a picture of the Cohen signature I own; sorry that I could not get rid of the reflections, but as it is framed, it catches the light...

Ah, yes, Minna - you wrote that beautiful poem for Troy, didn't you? Well, in any case, I suppose that those signatures you have collected for him are even more special, even better than autographs in the proper sense in many ways!
And aren't you happy, now that democracy seems finally to have come to the U.S.A.?

Dear Minna,

no, don't worry - I would not have misread your message! Stupid me, though - I just wondered at first how you can get Goofy to sign anything? But then it occurred to me that it must have been autographed by one of the illustrators. Am I right?
Oh, are the Leonard posters the tour ones? If so, the thought of the Helsinki concert will probably help you to get through the allegedly very long and cold Finnish winter as well and to get warm as often as you look at them...

Here is my signature that a good friend kindly got for me in New York last year when Leonard turned up to duet with Anjani April 2007........... so honoured to have it

Is My Leonard Cohen Autograph Real??? THANKS!!! http://img110.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dunnoze5.jpg

It looks like it, but I suppose it depends on where you got it from (i.e. from a reliable source...). What is it on? On a piece of paper, or in a book maybe?

Are you sure about your "good friend", tinderella? That signature really doesn't look genuine to me...

Wow, Richard I am really surprised you said that... Leonard signed that when he was almost 73 years old... and I have the ticket stub from the show also... and yes i trust my friend, He is a big Leonard fan too... It's real.......... ( Leonard , if you feel like verifying this, I would appreciate it. )

Do you mind if I put in my two cents. Of course it is real. You are one lucky person to have it. Don't let anyone ever put any doubt into your mind. Your friend would never lie to you. It is a FRIEND who got it for you and for you, to doubt is just silly.

Bernie knows her autograph is real it is as real as my glass

Richard the authograph is certainly genuine as is the man.

Hey Mike and Paula... thanks for the comments... yea I know its real and when I meet Leonard I know he will verify it

And his "Best Wishes" to you are authentic and genuine, too - what more can anyone ask for? (Well, apart from the opportunity of having Leonard confirm the authenticity of the autograph, of course, and not even primarily just to silence the sceptics out there...)
