AutographLive will be buggy tonight while we test code we're developing for it. Everything should work fine within the next 3-5 hours.

Bruce Lee Real or Fake

Can anyone tell me if this is real or not? Apparently the company that authenticated it has had fraud problems, but I can't get a definitive answer that I am comfortable with yet.  Thanks for any help.

AAU has a bad reputation, I wouldn't be surprised if this was a forgery. I know antiquities out of Las Vegas use them to authenticate their "fake stuff"

The signature looks slowly drawn imo.

It certainly is.

Drew Max (AAU) sits along side Chris Morales, Ted Taylor, Stephen Rocchi and others as one of the worst authenticators of all time.  Those guys have never seen an autograph they didn't like.

Here is an authentic Bruce Lee signed in 1966.

This is quite interesting. I appreciate all the information. It seems to me that every single autograph company out there has had problems with fraud. I have seen some from PSA, JSA, ECT. Most others may have more including AAU. Yet I see other items authenticated by AAU that people have taken to PSA and they were deemed authentic. I guess in the end it is up to the individual buying the item. I have been in the buying/selling/collecting signed memorabilia for a long time and sometimes I have been burned and other times not. Thanks again everyone for all your information.

In reference to Drew Max (AAU), odds are that he might get one correct for every 10,000 examinations by sheer luck.

The spacing between the letters and several nuances of the letters themselves in the signature are incorrect. Not authentic in my opinion.
