This site was set up to help people to either determine if the Bowie autograph (s) they owned is/are genuine or fake as well as for people who are considering investing in a Bowie autograph. I will gladly continue to help out in anyway possible to try and stop fraudsters ripping Bowie fans off!
'The latest very useful site that you may have already stumbled upon, is Andy Peters’ superb davidbowieautograph.com. It’s a fascinating resource with a great blog and some very useful tips if you’re looking to purchase David Bowie’s autograph.
We’ve tried to catch Andy out with pretty accurate fakes and Bowie autographs that look like fakes that we know to be real. He’s never got it wrong. We’re not saying that he’ll never ever get caught out, but for the novice collector, it’s a great place to start before you cough up your hard-earned.'

"In addition to online research, they contacted expert Andy Peters, who's been collecting Bowie autographs since 1978 and started authenticating his signature following the singer's 2016 death after suffering from cancer in an effort to combat the flood of fakes that were available for sale.
"When I first saw the painting, I knew what it was straightaway," Peters told CNN.
He said he remembered it being sold on a now-defunct Bowieart website back in the early 2000s.
"I did not need to see the autograph on the back because I knew, but obviously the signature sealed the deal," Peters said.

"Thanks so much, as you know I had already parted with £900 on the signed Heroes sleeve and I luckily came across your fantastic site via google when the purchase was still within the Paypal guarantee. Your email ensured I got my money back from Paypal and I am more grateful than I can express for your knowledge, help and friendly emails!"

"In closing Andy, thank you so much for your valuable site, it truly must be a labor of love (sometimes maybe more labor than love?) I just drool over some of those 77-79 signatures, as that’s my favorite period….that “Heroes” LP cover is just to die for !"
