Rushed, but authentic. Also totally ridiculous since the person in the photograph is not Ian Gillan, but David Coverdale.

your correct, the autograph is Gillan but how ridiculous is that, wrong person on the photo,just goes to show Ian pays no attention to what he signs....

This material, the others I saw, is unsaleable, less than "C"...

Stop buying Nicholas IMO. Education/observation are what I suggest

Agreed.

I would suggest posting any prospective acquisitions here before buying, like in this case since the item looks to be still for sale on eBay.

Also, try not to get discouraged by all the bad sellers out there. There are some good ones too, but knowing which one you're dealing with is the challenge.

Eric:  I have learned. perhaps the hardway, yes but out of all my autographs - a lot I didn't post here come with authentication from PSA DNA, JSA Spence and or have an affiliation with the organization UCCA.  Then there are some who I believe in my soul are genuine.  I research autographs and compare them, ask tons of questions, research the seller, how long he's been in business, who is he, does he or she have positive feedback and ask whether the autograph is done by autopen, rubber stamped, not pre prints or secretarial.
