See you at Empire Day.  How will I know you are you ?

Larry: What's the guy, four years old? He's got to meet Julia Louis-Dreyfus! What kind of person is that?!

Cheryl: He's a fan.

Larry: What does he expect to gain from such meeting? What does he think, he's gonna go over there, she's gonna be so charmed by him that all of a sudden they'll start becoming friends? They'll talk on the phone and go out to dinner together, go to the movies? What, start e-mailing each others' summer vacations? Is he out of his f**king mind!?

I know that Anthony won't sign that green card.  When I met him last year I had a vintage green card for him to sign and the people taking the money made sure that it wasn't that one.  

He has a great name and shame section on his website for fake autographs, worth a look.  

I saw a classic Dave Prowse fake on a certain auction site the other week, it was signed by "David Prowes" !  £2, but I passed on it.

Depending on which story you believe, it's either a misprint or someone was playing a joke when the printing of the vintage green border Topps cards was happening.  It was quickly withdrawn (no pun intended) and replaced with the non-offensive version.

Here's a link to the card with the offending appendage -

It was a card with Threepio on it, but during the printing process, a little mistake happened.  When you look at that particular card, it seems that Threepio has a metallic erection... Oops!
