Bruce Springsteen - real or fake (part 327498765...)

Hello again!

My search for an authentic Springsteen autograph continues... :-)

What do you think of this one? It´s allegedly signed in 1998 and comes from a seller that previously has sold an Springsteen autograph that Roger Epperson considered genuine. So maybe this time...

Let me know what you think, THANKS!!!

Everybody is always looking for an opinion pay Roger Epperson the $15.00 and he will help you with exactly that don't cheap out. Google him its pretty simple and you have a link to pay him he is fast and honest.

Well I have already paid Roger $30 over the last 3 days so if I can get a freebie on this one, I don´t think that´s "cheaping out"... :-)

And as I have told you once before, I usually first ask the members here, before deciding if I should contact Roger or not. If it´s a pretty inexpensive autograph, as this one is, I´m often willing to take a gamble if you guys think it´s a good one. There are a lot of knowledge on this board and a lot of people who thinks it´s fun to help out!

If the general opinion is mixed, or if it´s a expensive item, I´ll think it´s a very good investment to pay Roger for his opinion to make sure that´s a genuine one. He´s the best in the business!!

But if you all directly think it´s a bad fake, then I can save the $15 for another time... :-)

I don`t know, but i seems that it is much more, and faster response when an autograph is fake. Often it`s when people see a definitive fake one, they react, and give their saying. When it`s probably genuine, most people look at it, and go on to the next thread. I could be wrong, but I think maybe that is quite natural.

Dont`t take me wrong, I don`t mean that no reaction means that its genuine, but maybe in some cases.

I am by no means a handwriting expert, but this sure looks like what he has been giving out lately. But you say its from 1998, so again, I think Roger is the way to go.
