Bruce Lee Signed Paper? REAL DEAL?

Wondering what you guys think about this signature. The seller has 2 of them and at a very low price. Says he got them from his grandfather and doesn't care for them and has lots of student loans mounting up and that they are 40 years old.

No one has to sell genuine Bruce Lee autographs cheaply.

They both look slowly signed and look very similar to each other. No natural variation. The top one looks like it was signed closer to 40 days ago than 40 years ago.

When I say they look slowly signed, the most obvious thing is that the writing doesn't trail off at the end. Everything ends in a hard stop. That's not natural, for Lee especially.

Google Bruce Lee signed checks and you'll find great examples of his signature. Many are PSA/DNA holdered. Those would be good examples to compare to.

Signed so slowly that ink is pooling at the top of each letter and at the start of each new line as well as the stops Steve mentioned.

I agree with both replies. Looks slowly drawn and ink looks fresh. What boggles my mind is that he says both passed PSA quick opinions? I'm thinking he put an authentic Bruce Lee Exemplar in the listing had PSA review it then removed it and put these forged ones up.

And another seller have a horrible James dean for sale for only 500 dollars! Also pre authenticated by psa. The sellers have no or low feedback. So this looks to be the new scam.
