For only $15.00, Mr. Epperson can give you an expert opinion on it.

Doesn't look right to me at all. Every single letter looks off, but the first to stand out was the S in Springsteen. I haven't seen it formed like this. Poor attempt.

Yeah the 'S' in Springsteen looks strange to me also but when comparing it to examples from around that time it doesn't look too off

Nice "Darkness" Album signed. That is mine. :) JSA authenticated.

And your right early Springsteen signatures the "S" looks like that.

Thanks for the reply Mark, sweet autograph by the way, not jealous at all... so is it possible that the signature I posted could be the real thing? Comparing it to early examples it looks good. By the way it's supposedly from 1981.

It looks right. But if I were going to invest in the $$, I would spend the $15 and get Roger's opinion on it.

Yours Aaron could be real but a lot of 80-81 autographs were on ballpoint or flair pens --not thick sharpie.

Yours looks as if it was signed yesterday. Here's a real one from the same tourbook (with LOA from Roger Epperson).

The autograph starting this post looks like a typical 80-82 sig, a little rushed, and maybe somewhat unusual in sharpie for that time. But still I think its real. The picture is certainly Bruce from the River-tour (80-81), and the signature is typical for that period.

The picture in the middle you have there is mine BTW..a better pic here.

Hi Trond, Nice autograph by the way! If the autograph I posted at the started is real would you have a rough estimate as to how much it could be worth?

A real one on a nice pic from the early 80`s..I will say those can easily go for at least $400-500.

Sorry for my earlier post. I'm not very familiar with earlier Springsteen autographs. It certainly compares with the pics posted, but I would check with Roger before buying.
