Is Paul McCartney Signature Authentic?

Please can anyone help me with this...your opinions are greatly appreciated :)

When I purchased this from a person from Mexico I was given a sticker during when the photo was taken (the guy selling me photo told me that he used to work as security on that day). I do not really know what the sticker (triangular in shape is) as there is written the work photo on it. Also he forwarded me a certificate. All is being submitted by way of this thread. Thanks.

Sorry, not authentic in my opinion. In Paul: the P and the A and the connection between them isn't good.

Hmmm I was pretty sure this is authentic. I compared signiture to others which are considered genuine in this group and still cannot see any difference :/ maybe others will give their opinion.

I think this signature has some atypical tendencies. I'm not convinced it was signed by Paul.

There is a lot wrong that makes this an easy, quick "no" vote.

I know that you already gave me your opinion but I compared the attached having the 'all the best' words with mine and except for the connection of the 'P' with the 'a' as Daniel Alayof stated the rest seems genuine. Regarding the 'P and the a' issue, it seems that Paul signed sometimes with them connected and sometimes not (if not mistaken). Are you still 100% convinced? Are there other issues? Still convinced re the authenticity?

All of the ones you’ve posted are authentic, however yours is not.

Daniel Grima, Your point is noted. However, the writing appears to mirror Paul very well to an untrained eye, but not convincingly enough to get past a trained eye. The exemplars you posted further my opinion that Paul did not sign the autograph you posted.

Authenticity is opinion-based. And we all have stories of autographs that we got in person yet and authenticator did not pass. Authenticity is usually difficult to prove either way. Your opinion is that it is authentic, and that is fine. Perhaps it is.
