The signature posted here is actually upside down, and in my opinion, is a forgery. 

I spotted this style of autograph first on ioffer, and the prices for them (when other MJ's were going for well over 1000) was give or take a couple hundred dollars (US).  These also made it onto the scene at Comic Con dealer booths where they were also selling cheap.  They've now graduated onto eBay where the prices have hiked to match authentic MJ's.  The prices also skyrocketed on ioffer.

Here is the one you posted (in the correct view to see the autograph upright)

And here are others signed by the same person.

Very difficult to find legit ones Rob, that is unless you want to pay a mint, and that's not any fun :)
