Authenticity is Everything

Is this bon scott and angus young signed lp real?

I found this signed lp on ebay for sale,the seller says it was signed on 21 dec 1979 after a show in england.The story is they met the band at the hotel after the show and his friend got Angus and bon to sign this lp,the seller says he got hotel paper and got the band to sign it for him.The seller says he bought the lp off his friend and is now selling it,he has posted a photo of his signed paper and a ticket for the show.I have looked at both and the lp autos dont look like they match the paper ones,the signed paper is real but the lp looks off.I think he has forged the lp and is using the real autos to convince people it must be real.What do you members think.

The LP in my opinion is not authentic. And i dont completely feel sure the hotel paper is authentic either. I havent studied their autographs that early in depth, but after flipping the pic over and viewing it from different areas, it looks like all the signatures on the hotel paper could have been signed by the same person. As a quick point, check out the AC/DC under their signatures. Now their are only so many ways you can write the letters A, C, and D, but on the hotel paper, they all look the same. They are formed the same way, and they trail off in the same way. I would have to consult Roger Epperson on it, but just right off i would avoid both.
