Hi Sandra, I wasn't having a go at you personally merely pointing out how difficult it is for someone to offer an item for opinions in general and so far the feelings have been mixed which doesn't answer the poster's question and in my opinion won't unless someone of Roger's standing and reputation offer their verdict. I have collected In Person for over 45 years and have got well in excess of 15,000 signatures myself - which still doesn't make me an expert on authenticating. In the 60's I must have got The Who 15 times at least and Keith Moon's signature varied depending on the circumstances he signed in. I once got all four stood by a hot dog stall on the promenade in my hometown of Morecambe where they were playing that night. Keith signed my album page with a hot dog in one hand and on completing it splattered his hotdog along with tomato ketchup and mustard onto the page thinking it was hilarious. I managed to clean it off but it still bears signs of the stain but nobody, not even Michael Jackson could sign perfectly every time especially in a crowd of people. My son and I got Ray Davies of the Kinks within 30 seconds of each other and the two signatures bear little resemblance to each other - they are genuine but if I posted them on here I know exactly the type of comments they would attract - so I don't. When it is your full time business and your livelihood depends on your reputation then it does make life difficult when you are looking at having to refund money to a buyer based on opinions which is why I would only ever trust Roger's on this and will abide by his verdict totally

Not authentic in my opinion, looks too neat for MJ
