Another fake 'signed edition'

Post by Rob Houghton »

Another one supposedly signed by Enid...

very fake looking! Could almost be 'Grud Blyton'!! ;-)

Always interesting to see how much these go for...

'Oh voice of Spring of Youth
hearts mad delight,
Sing on, sing on, and when the sun is gone
I'll warm me with your echoes
through the night.'

(E. Blyton, Sunday Times, 1951)

It was a nuisance. An adventure was one thing - but an adventure without anything to eat was quite another thing. That wouldn't do at all. (The Valley of Adventure)

Nahh that's definitely Gnid Blyton, a different writer entirely :lol: You can tell as s/he always signs in brown felt-tip!

No wonder the photos are so blurry.

I can fake a better signature than that!
