Prince Autograph on "1999" Sheet Music

Sorry about the poor quality picture.  This is the best I can do without taking the whole picture frame apart.  If this isn't good enough, I will do that, just let me know.  Real or not??

Roger is going to be the man on this. I doubt anyone here has seen enough Prince sigs to give an opinion worth its salt.

Absolutely agree.

I'm not an expert...but this does not look right to me.

I tell you Bob, this is a bit beyond my pay grade. Id go with Roger just to be safe, but  my opinion is that it is actually genuine. Most Prince autographs posted are forgeries, sad to say, but i see alot of positives in this signature. Its a little messy, but i have several Prince examples in my saved files that show very similar characteristics. My opinion is that its probably genuine, but ask Roger and wait for others just to be sure. I wouuld also wait for Bjarne to comment. He is a member on this site who is very good with Prince. If he doesnt see this thread, ill drop him a note to see if he will look at it.

In my opinion this is not a genuine Prince autograph. My two biggest concerns are the P itself and also the angle it written.

Lol, that was quick Bjarne. What about this one troubles you. I thought the P formation looked pretty good. The P to the R connection is a little unusual but i have several saved from RR that look very similar. Here is one  i thought compared with favorable traits with the p and r formation. You know Prince better than me, but i thought this one looked better than most. The rest of the signature looked messy, but i have seen some that bad. The N formation also looked fairly good compared with most forgeries.
