I have a lighted theatre with Mickey & Pluto playing on the screen while goofy,mickey & pluto are watching the movie. It is 1 of 200 limited editions. It's called lights,cameras & pins. Do you know the value of this piece?

Hi Jack! I'm so sorry, I'm not a collector and really don't know how to value that. Have you tried looking it up on pinpics.com?

I just bought Bambi and Friends from a collector, it came with a COA, And I was told that it was bought from Disney World. My concern is that it has been signed twice, once in red and the other in looks like gold pen? I am afraid that it is a fake? I was hoping that the Artist may have singed it again, when it came off the printer?

Hi Matthew!

Without seeing your piece it's hard to tell what is going on. Does the red signature look like it's part of the print? If so I would assume that's on the lithograph and the gold was signed by the artist in person. However I'm not an art expert and without seeing the piece it's hard to say.

Try giving the Art of Disney store a call directly.

Matthew W. I have some of Alex Maher's art work. I was attending the pin convention in Disney World on a few occasions and was lucky enough to have Alex autograph, not only the pins that were his design, but the artwork I had purchased from the Disney Store. Alex signs above the art signature with a gold pin. That gives you two signatures. Yours is probably authentic.
