What are the clues that are swaying your opinion about its authenticity? have you compared it to know Elvis authentic examples? try comparing it to these:

Guess that is why I am not destined to be an autograph authenticator. If I saw any of those Elvis examples separately and not as a group I wouldn't be able to verify any one of them! Probably why I've never owned Elvis. Thanks for the reference page.

he is really tough for me.  I wouldn't trust my own judgement on Elvis for the most part.  but for this one, even if authentic, I probably wouldn't want it. there are too many non-typical issues.

For me personally, the "El" looks off right out of the gate. The bottom of the of the "l" comes to a point which looks strange to me as well.

Yeah, I think I made a bad call on this one.

Not authentic. That swooping "e" is indicative of the German secretarials.

I think this could be authentic in my opinion. Best advice is what previous have said here use Roger Epperson to get an expert's opinion on this.

I have thought this for years, another point to look at as well, his Dads signature, looks very similar to Elvis's as well. I am pretty sure his Dad signed quite a few for his son as well in his later years
