Eric what do you think!

Thanks Eric! I was going by this 2013 that to me looked the closest. But obviously without the date
That "could" be good. Closer to 1991-1994. I'd need a better scan. The 2013 you showed is good.
I'd avoid this seller.
Think I noticed an Audrey Hepburn signature with the same presentation. Probably same seller. Very bad.
Those are very different animals. The dateless "2013" you showed and the 2013 I showed. Does that look like ink?
If i may be so bold to add...
I looked at it with a magnifying glass and the ink is blotchy and kinks. Not smooth like a typical Bowie. This one looks slowly and deliberately done.
Notice the big kink at the middle of the B when it comes off the top loop. A sign of confusion to me.
Also... are there any other examples where the OWIE goes vertical like a tornado?
And of course the most obvious.... why no date?
Personally I would lean towards bad Bowie
Here's an authentic tornado from 91! And I've seen a few without a date. I liked it at first and thought it might be a later example although Eric said that it could possibly pass for a mid 90's. Anyway, the seller has too many other signatures presented the same way which makes things look very dodgy. When i mentioned this to the seller their line of communication suddenly went very quiet.
Thanks for your advice goodcat. This is one i no longer have any interest in
thx for that nice example VH
My input on the fact the seller has them as cut sigs and laminated could be that he is trying to emulate PSA/DNA and a few others who slab their items. I wouldn't necessarily make this out to mean they are fake.
The sig has to stand on it's own and the packaging is far down the list of importance. That's the subjective part IMO.
I'm not saying this Bowie is Fake, but I am saying there are issues that make me not like it as I stated. Especially the bottom loop formation of the B. It's not smooth
I certainly see what you mean about the bottom B loop. And the first part of the B, the vertical part, doesnt look quite right either, I'd love to see a video of Bowie actually writing his signature. That might help us determine good from bad a little more easily.
I dont like all these cut and laminated signatures. If you look at the others this seller has for sale they all seem to be written on the same paper! With that in mind, the strange B, the no date, and the fact that this hasnt sold at less than $200 yet i think it's best avoided
