Thx Eric

It's a little sparse and atypical I agree, but I like it for a few reasons.  Not that I'm going to buy it at the asking price of nearly $900, but was curious if authentic or not as a training ground.

Hi Shawn

Definitely NOT authentic...very slowly written and a pause at the bottom of the B stalk.  Unusual downwards finish at the end  - it is generally straight or an upward curve to complete the dot of  which in this case is a star of David which I have never seen before in many, many years of collecting DB. The "best" is also a giveaway is it is too neat and the signer is clearly right handed...just my "two new pence" worth

This will have been the signature style from 88-89 era the forger with the red pen was trying to emulate...

thanks very much for your comments MarkG. Great insights

Yes I noticed that pause at the bottom of the "B" as well.

It sold for $400 last night I believe

I have figured out where these seem to be coming from...I might add to this shortly..."The stars are out tonight"...
