Not really, you asked "fact or fancy" so I said "fancy".

I was left a bit confused with the reply "Fancy" also.   

Patrick asked:  "Bette Davis Signature, Fact or Fantasy?"

Well, the important thing is the exemplars have been shown and the question answered. I tried to correct my error and still messed up! FANTASY!

I'm afraid that, in this case, these aren't just "opinions".  It's an indisputable fact that this is not Bette's autograph.

p.s.  I just remembered that you had a Davis signed photo that some of us commented on a few months ago.  Just compare that one with this and it's readily apparent that these are two different hands signing them.

Thanks for the input Eddy.  I have a bunch of Bette Davis autographs.  This one doesn't look like any of the others. I bought this thing about 3 years ago.  I Googled Bette Davis exemplars.  I saw a couple of supposed Bette Davis signatures that were similar to this one.  Also, I have learned that people's signatures do change somewhat over time.  I was hoping I'd get lucky on this one. No such luck!  That's why I sought your help.

Once again, I appreciate your input!
