Paul McCartney Authentic?

I bought this autograph from a reputable dealer on the Internet. It was claimed the CD was signed in London in 2008 at an in-store signing (sounds legit up to that point on research done by myself).

Just wanted people's opinions as to whether or not this is authentic. Cheers for any help provided.

Attached the autograph image myself.

Cheers MeanMrMustard! As said, once xmas is over and done with, time to get the item framed, with pic and plaque if possible.

Plan to utilise this for the future for exhibitive purposes.

How about this one. I bought this one recently. I like it. Looks like a mid 90's to me. What do you guys think?

I think its good. I had to look at it for a while because of the pointed nature of some of the letters, but there are a lot of positives, in my opinion.

My gut instinct was OK when I first saw it. Therefore, I'm going with the gut. From past sigs I've seen, it looks similar to one specimen I saw.

I think you'll find its OK. However if I am ever unsure, I do what you do and ask for a second opinion or ask an authenticator.

Its actually a CD booklet as well. Not as bold as your fireman, but a Paul non the less. Its my latest acquisition. What Im trying to do is amass a collection of solo pieces so i can eventually sell them for a full set. A good set is a bit out of my current budget.

Dunno what your budget is but you can get some "bargains," even if they're not quite as valuable as other pieces!

Liking your philosophy of buying solo pieces so you can get a full set one day - I've amassed some good autos in the past which could prove to be valuable.

Also if you can, try and get to the shows - I hear Mr Aldrin is attending Autographica next year and anything signed on space memorabilia is worth a fortune. Sadly, Mr Armstrong doesn't sign anymore and even he's outside my budget, too, sadly.

Anyways, try and add some more to your current autograph, ie. framing, add pic and plaque and value shoots up.

Put it like this: if Tracks can sell a McCartney for £695 just framed, imagine what a photo and plaque could do for the selling potential.

I have targets in mind as well for solos, too. Enough of my rambling. Good job on the McCartney!
