The Elvis signature in the OP and the one currently for sale originally sold on eBay for $450 and $315 respectively, both from the same seller. They appear to me to be in the same hand. The seller of these Elvis items also sold a Jimi Hendrix signature that doesn't look good to me for $1,100.

Here's the one I'm referring to that's currently for sale in another thread. It's from the same eBay seller as the example in the OP.

Those $$$ totals for Elvis signatures don't give either of them a vote of confidence.

I'm not saying somebody didn't get a bargain...but somebody didn't get a bargain...

Nice work Ballroom...

Thanks, Don. Good work to you and Steve C. for calling it correctly, in my opinion, and to others who made good points too.

You are correct Ballroom, they are both from the same seller, before purchasing i got  opinions on both item from Roger Epperson and he deemed them authentic. Bargain on them...i think so.

I removed the sale of the Elvis autograph because of the doubt of its authenticity even with Mr. Epperson approval.

The Elvis autograph 'To Alice from Elvis Presley' was deemed authentic by Roger Epperson on July 15, 2016, still have his e-mail.

Looking at the Hendrix signatures Ballroom just posted, if these aren't real then I think they may be machine signed. If so, that's why they look so good—they have genuine characteristics.

When I said "these" I'm talking about the Elvis ones. 

The Hendrix ones are an example of likely machine-signing in my opinion.

Here are a couple of Hendrix "autographs" from this seller. Apparently there is a third example, but I don't have an image of it. I believe the first one sold for either $950 or $800. 

Ballroom, look at the similar characteristics in those Hendrix autographs. The EN, the IMI of Jimi. I think these may be machine signed. They can be scary hard to detect.

It appears to me as though it's just a skilled forger mimicking the same genuine characteristics across multiple signatures. Same with the Elvis signatures, in my opinion.
