Elvis 70's

Hi guys,

I have put this in a few places but I've been wanting to get a general overview of what Elvis experts look for when authenticating his graph.

I have read up quite a lot and the attached photo is one that quite a lot of people like. It resembles hallmarks such as the looped lettering, shaping of the letters, height of letters, and general flow. It's obviously done in biro too as markers weren't commonly around then. Then there's the inscription which I see he used a lot, simply 'Best wishes'

What do you guys think? Would love your opinion too.

Cheers,

Ben

Epperson is really solid on Elvis, from what ive observed and there are some incredible forgeries out there.

Oh I don't doubt that at all. He has a solid reputation.

I'm just saying that there are variations.

For example, look at the attached. This is an authentic autograph that shows the E taller than the l. On most of the guides to an authentic autograph that is a big no-no. But it happens as no signature is always exactly the same.
