Is This Good? Nope. Billy Corgan C. 2005

Forged Billy Corgan of Smashing Pumpkins. Alleged signature on a "Future Embrace" CD insert. Drawn. All period 2005 specifics only match examples coming from... Minnesota! Show me a genuine Billy where the "r" in "Corgan" slants to the left, apart from the other problems regarding attack and form. They are forged variations copied, drawn, poorly from a few authentic 2005 Promo tour signatures found online. Hesitant, slow, drawn. Not terrible, but wrong slants and starting points etc. reveal all. Dropped "M" and and "h", yes, but wrong. Seller has obscure signed material which, IMO, only matches (duplicates poorly down to placement) the few examples shown online, or...in his other auctions. There are two other "Future Embrace" items online - and they hail from Minnesota and show the ending flourish seen here. The loops reveal forgery. Interesting. All display the odd closing mark specific to 2005, but they're are formed incorrectly and show hesitance.
