Does this look to be legitimate?

Here is one from Perry Cox where the two Rs in his last name don't have loops. What do you think?

To be fair the one in question at the top hasn't been authenticated by Caiazzo or Cox or Tracks, but by the private collection Of the owner of Paul's Hollywood Cafe & Collectables which comes with his Certificate Of Authenticity hand signed by him. Who I must say I have never heard of him before.

I am not claiming that the top TPA don't make mistakes (N. Steiger you do a great job with your studies), but with doing your own proper research and their expert opinion it does make it easier to figure out an authentic one to buy. However you'll never know for sure one way or another if you weren't there to see it. 

Btw thanks N. Steiger, you did do a great job with this. 

I have seen these same styles on numerous records and other single signed items that they all have deemed real.

I noticed a number of their listings and have questioned a number of their vintage Hollywood signatures. When I see a listing by them I walk...run away.

I see a lot of fake stuff. I am not saying they are the source though. I think these people sell stuff they acquire

I try to put forth a true study, not just words. Thank you for the compliment. If I am ever unwelcome just tell me and I can vanish.

Good points raised by Mr. Steiger and I agree on this one. I would not want to add this to my collection

Sideways, Guitar George. Well this is my one.

I'd like to see close up images, straight, of the signature.

I don't think that this is the same as the ones I am concerned about.  But this ones looks strange to me for several other reason honestly. The first G looks a little funny, I think typically if you look at the very back points of the G they shouldn't align. I feel normally the top loop would be back a little from the bottom loop. Also he down stroke of the H looks misaligned and not in the correct flow position with the last e in George. To me every stroke of the H was done separately and decisively with no speed, this is huge problem. I also see something in the i in Harrison. If you look at the top of it, just to the left a little I see a small indent. I can't say for sure but that could be a stopping point with a pen lift and the signer didn't land the pen perfectly to finish the signature. If I has this in person i could put a magnifying glass in it to see the pen stroke. This could be the nail in the coffin but again, i can't see close enough to tell for sure.
