I'm looking to buy a Michael Jordan autographed jersey and found three at a decent price. I would really appreciate your expert opinions on the authenticity of the autographs.
Autographs on Jerseys are difficult. Even authentic ones can look off. I wouldn't touch a Jordan jersey that wasn't from Upper Deck Authenticated. He's been exclusive to them for 20+ years. He signs for nobody else and in person autographs are rare. And there really aren't any deals on authentic Jordans. They are in high demand. 99% of any jerseys purported to be singed by Jordan that don't have the corresponding UD paperwork and hologram sticker are going to be fake.
I agree. #1 looks way off to me. #2 not as bad, but off, just the same. #3, IMO, has a chance of being authentic. That one has more in common with the characteristics of MJ signatures over the long haul. #3 is the one I think would have the best chance of passing PSA or JSA. Looks more like what they authenticate than #1 and #2.
