Authenticity is Everything
Is this Charles Schulz 'Snoopy' sketch authentic?
I paid for a Beckett quick opinion and it came back as unlikely to pass full authentication. I have compared to other exemplars thru RR Auction and this appears to be real. What are your thoughts?

You need to take a photo of the item, not a photo of the item on a device or whatever is going in here. Nothing can be determined with any accuracy from this photo.

I posted a replacement photo which I hope is better. An auction house is selling it and it's the best image I can take

I have a working theory that Charles Schulz knew how to spell his name. I am not convinced by this signature or sketch. Lets see what others say. The eyes look off to me as well - usually the same size. Not always.

Even here there is a "u" and "L" near, but see the small, perhaps added, upstroke of the "u" left of the vertical "l". The OP smile seems a bit wide and off to me anyway. Perhaps of note is the height of the "l" compared to the "u". OP shows the same height. As I said, lets see what others think

I see what you are saying. I see a separate "u" and "l" on your example. On the OP's example they seem like one entity. It could be a case of a forger misinterpreting what they see on an authentic signature.

The rest of the signature appears off as well to me. I just looked at a few hundred signatures. When in script, the "l" is always there and higher. In block letters I saw just one like the OP. The rest have it separate - when it is joined there is at least the suggestion of an "l" if not much more, and the "l" is higher than the "u". When the same height they are fully separate from all I've seen.
