Also, looking at the other items that the seller has listed, I believe their signed Thriller album is also good.

It certainly looks close but look at the sharp corners at the start of the M. That's not natural.

That one has the natural flow and speed of a real one.

I think theres too much right with it to get hung up on the M - though the DL shows the same pointed characteristcs.

Small surface to sign etc.

Hopefully others will offer opinions too.

You're right. I looked on my phone and it looked too rigid.

 It’s a reminder to me that even with a big phone, they're not a great way for me to authenticate autographs.

I’m still interested to hear what others say. I consider myself pretty darn good with Michael Jackson,  especially vintage , and if the general consensus here was forgery I might have to consider retiring from the game!!

 I do believe it’s authentic.

When you zoom in close you can see that the corners aren't rigid stops and starts, which is what I saw them as until I did. They tightly flow in the corners.

I've seen some crazy good forgeries that are only detectible by a couple of things that MJ never did.

I found a similar example of this signature above to an item sold at Julien’s Auction a couple of years ago.
