Thanks guys! I had hope for Griffey Jr due to the speed that it was signed, but the Bonds appeared slow/bold and concerning. This seller on ebay has sold thousands and thousands more listed with this same personal coa. I try researching and comparing fakes with authentic examples buy I still struggle with many signatures. Thanks again for your help.

On the Griffey Jr,  its a decent attempt ... But there's still a lot wrong with it. That's also a well known forged photo.

Yes that is the seller and is actually the photo I have posted a sample of. I had searched for this type of information before asking for opines. This is all good information to know and I am in the market for an autographed item for each of these players. I'm trying to learn their signature's like I have Mantle, DiMaggio and Williams. Thanks again for all the help and if anyone has any pointers that I should look for at these signature's that would be great. Terrior and Steve taught me a lot on the Mantle and DiMaggio signature's and I feel comfortable with opines on those signatures. I want to be able to determine authenticity on my own rather than comparing to known genuine and still not being sure.
