Hi everyone,
Does this Babe Ruth autograph look real in your opinion?
Thanks!

It is a bad source. How do you excuse your sellers behavior, selling forgeries? What does this behavior say about your seller? A man of conscience? Straight shooter? Or something else?

Daniel,

Think about this:

You paid $400;
The seller paid eBay $40;
The seller must have made a profit, so he probably paid $200 or less.

So if it's real, not only was the eBay seller dumb enough to sell a genuine Harrison for a fraction of its value. The person he bought it from had to be brain-dead.

Sometimes you just get a good deal. Bought a fully authentic Brady for $400 a few weeks back, should of been $900-$1000. 

Price is only one piece of the puzzle. 

Does anyone have any sure genuine circa-1990 Harrison autographs they can post for comparison?

This is a facsimile copy of George Harrison 1991 autograph for reference.

Those look so smooth compared to the OP. The OP gets a bit angular, such as the second "g".

You're right, Eric. The second G is actually smooth but it isn't naturally flowing, which is what I think you meant.

Yes, Steve, like much of the rest.

Here's a comparo of Daniel's McCartney, top and right; and ones from about 1980 to 1992 on the left. What do you see?

Enough to not want the one on the right. The whole thing looks uncomfortable to forced; the "G", the height of the letters in the first name is odd, the formation of letters in same, negative spaces, spatial relationships, those "r"'s, more...definite pass.
