Authentic Elvis Presley autograph

Since I'm new to this forum and the members on this site have already helped me out twice by warning me of likely forged autographs (Michael Jackson, Kurt Cobain) I'd like to contribute something on here that I know is 100% real (well, 99.9%) and my favourite autograph in my collection - my Elvis Presley cut signature. I know his signature varied a lot over time and this signature might look a bit off at first glance but it has the necessary provenance to come to the conclusion that it's undoubtedly real. I decided to share it for future comparisons as it might help others searching for authentic Elvis signatures :)

Thanks Don! Before I bought mine I compared it to ones in this forum and I remember seeing this one on here. Nice piece, just like mine it is a great example of an in-person autograph that was signed at a chance encounter.

Thanks for your comment, Karsten!

Yes, the lady I bought it from got it in February 1974 after one of his shows at the Hilton. Elvis' stepbrother Rick Stanley asked her if she wanted to meet Elvis and brought her and a friend of hers to his suite. It was there that he signed this half of a doctor's prescription (he also signed the other half for her friend). The woman and Rick kept in touch for about two years afterwards (they were pretty much the same age). She even met up with Rick a few more times at one of Elvis' California homes but only encountered Elvis that one time in Vegas.
