" Eric really knows his Bowie stuff and I totally agree with everyone here, it's not a real Bowie at all.This example is not close (too many red flags to go into) but I hope you are able to get a full refund. "
"Thanks for the reply Eric! Admittedly, I speak on almost no authority - but I'm not put off by the numerals.
I found several "9"s on Andy's site at DavidBowieAutograph.com where he claims to show only authentic signatures.…"

Bowie 97 Autograph
This Bowie autograph was recently obtained from Smith & Sons Collectibles. They claim the provenance was a David Bowie concert in Minneapolis, MN in 97, and provided their own COA.To me, it has many of the signature characteristics of his autograph at the time, and I believe it to be authentic. Would love to hear other's opinions on this one.Thanks,ZachSee More
