These are from the same seller. How do they look?

Elvis - BIN Price $250

Prince - BIN Price $190

Bob Dylan - BIN Price $160 

Whatever the Morrison signature tastes like, I hope it's on soft paper so Bart can at least get some use out of it.

That's not too surprising considering that it's a fairly close copy of a genuine Morrison signature. Consider that it went unsold at a starting price of nearly half what you paid for it before being relisted. Also, the Elvis and Prince "autographs" shown above went unsold at $140 and $100 respectively. Are those genuine as well? If so, why doesn't anyone want them at such low prices?

It isn't a reprint. By "copied", I mean that it appears to have been forged using the Billy James signature as an example. It has a somewhat slow and loosely drawn appearance. If a seller is offering garbage for peanuts, they'll certainly be willing to make up a story of provenance for you. I wonder why they didn't mention it in the auction description? Again, I've never seen where he signed an autograph as though he was signing a book, and with the signature adjacent to the dedication? Do you have any examples of that? You might want to send Roger a link to the seller's eBay account and see what he thinks?

Of course there are indentations. Once again, I believe it was forged, by hand, using an authentic signature as an example. That is going to result in indentations in the paper. Look at how the downstroke of the N changes angles. It has a slowly drawn appearance.

There are fake Doors signed contracts with Jim signatures that closely resemble his authentic signature. In fact, at least two of those fakes fooled more than one professional authenticator. The signatures were forged using an authentic contract as an example, and those forged signatures are very close in appearance to the originals.
