Authenticity is Everything
My Mick Jagger Autograph.
Hi. I purchased this from Roger Epperson last year and just like to share this particular graph with you. I know it's authentic. Signed in the early 1980's. It ranks as one of my favorite autographs in my collection.

The Mick and Morrison are good, in my opinion.
I don't think people understand autograph authenticity. They say things like "But look...the M isn't the same as the one I got in 1974." It doesn't work that way, folks.
And, as Roger explained about the book of autographs...I've purchased collections like that before. Where I get 300 albums that are signed, from somebody that was a hardcore collector or worked at a concert venue, and has ticket stubs with all the concerts. Does that mean one can't be fake in the bunch? Well, yes...yes it does. Because...why would somebody that had a personal collection (that wasn't an autograph dealer), have a fake one in their collection, when they went to the venue and got them signed? The family is selling them because the dude died.

Josh, I don't disagree with what you are saying.
Having collected 3 specific music artists/bands autographs since 1978 (Bowie, Floyd and the Stones), I am not daft enough to think that many variances can happen according to hundreds of factors including the surface (or lack of) they are signing on, how hassled/rushed they are, signature changes over decades, different pens etc and even the mood they are in.
In the case where an opinion is asked for in an area where you seen the artists concerned giving their autograph over many years, the first instinct is to say either that's bang on - or that doesn't seem quite right - or that's a total forgery. Even then its only an opinion of one person...
In this instance after Roger added the background story and the credence and Steve kindly put all 3 side by side, it appears it is a genuine signature with some nuances that are pretty unusual and not often seen but nonetheless probably genuine which is good news for Nicholas.

whast you mean is that there would be no known band intentional forgeries. But secretarial and manager signed things could easily get into the mix

This is why I dont like showing my sigs any more- everybody is an “authenticator.”

Can't say I agree with this comment. The more eyes the better. And many people here have great eyes. Showing what I am interested in buying is better than hiding it. I've bought many items and passed on many items based on the inputs of AML. And because I have a wide range of interests, I can't possibly know them all.

Agree - I have no problem showing my items and autographs. I love all the different input and one can learn too. All seems good to me. And much of the qualities and various presentations really need to be seen. Like a copy photo and a first gen - easiest to differentiate when seen.

Yes, I have a larger flat on scan from when it was loose on eBay perhaps last year. I saw the current scan already and also the one used in the previous sale. What are you getting at?

PS - Alexander, all that handwriting in the lyrics of the guestbook were of no use? I thought you'd recognize this one from the sale!

Alexander,
I thought the scans should be posted again so everyone can follow:
Alexander, you wrote that #2 above was "very questionable", but this signature has been shown to be sourced from the guestbook of the Château d'Hérouville. You then decalred #4 was "fake" - I thought some more of the page might interest you - I found it while looking for the source to post for you:
