Sure. It looks real enough to me.

Personally, I don't believe most of the claims on this site that signitures are 'secretarial.' Without being obtained in person, I can't imagine how anyone would know that a signiture was or was not placed on a document by someone other than the person identified by the signiture. Nor can I imagine the circumstances under which it could occur.

Clint Eastwood is one of a handful of working actors who were originally employed by a major studio during the end of what's known as the star system. Signing autographs and replying to fan mail was just one component of the responsibilities the studios impressed on contract players. Eastwood has always seemed to me to be a genuinely decent individual, and my thought is that if Eastwood himself were not able to comply with an autograph request, it's much, much more likely that the secretarial responsibility would be to enclose a short explanation in the SASE that the required signiture could not be supplied as requested, along with a short detailing of the reasons, and possibly a pre-printed autograph on a recent handout photo. Except for the pre-printed autographed photo, that's precisely what's done with such celebrities as Paul McCartney--probably the most-desired authentic autograph in the world--Julie Andrews, and several others.

So, yeah, I believe the Eastwood signiture is authentic. And I'll continue to believe it until it's proven otherwise...preferably by someone who was there at the time, and can testify under oath that they saw Eastwood not sign the photo.

Are you being serious?
