I can't see the autograph on the album well enough to have an opinion, but I wouldn't buy the second or third one you posted.

None are real in my opinion

Happy to help, but look for other opinions, too.

The third one looks really close to me, but the main thing that concerns me is that the pen pressure isn't lighter at the high and low points. MJ tended to move his hand very little vertically while signing, swinging the pen up and down like a pendulum, which gave the high and low points less pen pressure.

I agree with you, Steve. The pen pressure on this autograph isn't right compared to other MJ's real autographs. So I will avoid this one. 

Anyway, I notice that forgers of MJ's autograph are become more & more skill. A lot of beautiful forged MJ autographs are now in the market.
