Maybe, maybe...you sound like the seller! Trust has to be earned.

i don’t like his rushed signatures and only collect the full ones mostly. some are hard to tell because it’s not a real full signature and i’d pass on those anyway but that’s just me

The OP has terrible contrast, is very rushed and on newsaper. No eye appeal. Avoid just on those counts.

Richard Booth is the best on Elton John signatures. Might want to message him for his opinion.

The OP could well be a rushed in person signature. But, it would not command a high price tag.

If you are buying, would you really want to pay for 1 like this? Or wait for a deal on a nicer one? Even if proven authentic, I wouldn't spend money on this but thats just me. Not everyone will feel that way

The old question I always ask - "OK, it's authentic. But is it of quality?"

i don’t like the white one.

My motto in general (I'm not wading into this specific case) is that an autograph has to be not only authentic, it has to be authenticatable.

As for a picture of a photograph near Elton John, if the photo in the picture is not signed, then anyone with that same photo can claim that picture as their "photo proof".

Exactly.

@JK Very wise. I always tell collectors that you don't want anything in your collection that can be reasonably questioned. You never want to have to "defend" a piece in your collection, even if you know 100% it is authentic.

Leave the dented can on the shelf.
