Star Wars signed pictures. Real or Fake??? help needed

Over the past few years i have purchased 4 signed Star Wars pictures (photos attached). I purchased them through a local elementary school fundraiser. The pictures were provided by Charity fundraising www.cfr1.org and the authentication was from RM Real. I have learned a little more about both these organizations and the world of forgery. Is anyone willing to give me their opinion before i send them out to Beckett or another recognized authenticator. Appreciate any help.

I would be very surprised if any of those Star Wars autographs were authenticated by a reputable TPA.  Sorry, Todd.

These look a bit like the Charity Grow/ AutographStore forgeries which were doing the charity rounds a while ago and are definitely fakes IMO

No need to apologize, I was expecting the worst. Appreciate the responses. Any other takes welcomed.

Because the high probability of them being fake and getting my money back (possibly) any recommendations on what company to use to officially get the authenticated?

Probably Steve Grad at Beckett unless you can get someone at Star Wars Universe - SWAU or someone similar to give you something telling you they are fake. How long ago did you buy?

Thanks- This is good info.  I bought them between 2018-2020.

I believe these are all bad, but if you want a pro second opinion, I recommend Star Wars Autograph Universe Online Opinion Service helmed by our own Pete Chuka.
