This is a big No! You can compare with the same album that is signed by Queen. Freddie, John and Brian signed the album 1986 and Roger signed it in 2003. But his autograph has not changed much over the year.

Terry,

Bjarne's Freddy Mercury is spot on. I'm not familiar with the other autographs, but he's been a reliable voice on this site. I would also look up Stephen Duncan under members and comment on his profile asking for input and an example. Brian May got a few pieces signed by the band for Steve not long before Freddy passed away.

I don't know about the license, but a COA is only as good as the ethics and expertise of the dealer our authenticator issuing it. I can't see the Freddy Mercury well on yours but it appears to be far from the good ives I've seen.

I can say this is not authentic sorry Terry.

I have a few in my collection that are guaranteed and seen a few while doing authentication and these seem miles off. Also check out this Queen Autograph site for examples of authentic autographs:
