Steve. Is it my imagination or does that Joe Walsh signature look real?

Hi Joe, to me it looks like a simulation of a Walsh. I don't do Eagles much at all but I recall some from that huge 2 year rock and roll collection thread and I recall some.

Joseph,

The autographs are together below.

Among the first things I check on autographs is if they look naturally signed; a natural flow, weight and speed. I could be wrong, but these don't look naturally signed to me. The weight and speed are basically the same in all five. No variation, no natural speed. Walsh is generally a fast signer, you'll see variations in line thickness and weight. You see none of that here. Felder is equally odd in that way.

All have pen pressure, line thickness and speed as if they were signed by the same person.

If these were naturally signed, I can't see it. But there are people who know the Eagles better than I do.

I see what you mean Steve. Another lesson for me in signature identifying. You too John. Like they was signed at a kitchen table one after another with the album slanted against their body.
