Here's an authentic partial Janis signature for comparison. Look at the difference in the appearance of the "J"s. They appear to me to have been formed in a direction opposite to the ones posted above.

I dont see any similarities in the two signatures, and I would not trust that the cert is tied to that autograph. why would it say "Pearl" if the signature doesn't?

I noticed that as well. However, "Pearl", which was her nickname, is in quotes. Even if the COA was issued for a different signature, I doubt that the other one included "Pearl." I haven't seen one signed that way, anyway.

It's doing better than I had expected. It's up to $568.88 with about 3 days left to go.

It sold for $760. That's less than the value of an authentic Janis autograph, but not a great deal less. The winning bidder placed the top four bids.

It's actually a different item than the one pictured above(!)

Are you sure that is authentic?

No, I actually don't believe it to be authentic.
