The window sill trick is an old one - surprised you don't know it. Works well with items in a second glass case also. Popular with coins...there are "better" methods.

Those look bad. And here's the thing. I've always wondered...you know how we all know what the signatures look like of the Beatles, Doors, Stones, and Pink Floyd? I'll bet you there's an authentic set of all four, where for some reason or another, a band member just signed really, really funky. And somebody will try to sell the set, and everyone will say something like "That Ray Manzarek is all wrong," even though, for some reason or another, he just signed it really weird that day.

Not sure why I brought that up, as I think this entire set of signatures looks bad, but...it's always something I wondered, after Todd Rundgren was signing a photo of him and Ringo on stage that my friend took. He was admiring the photo, and he ended up signing it "Ringo" by accident. He apologized, and we both laughed hysterically. Someday when I die, and somebody tries to sell my collection, somebody is going to say "That is not an authentic Ringo signature" and they'll be right, and the photo will get tossed.

Josh, You hit it on the nail when you said "for some reason or another, he just signed it really weird that day." Yes, thats exactly right...There were so Many circumstances surrounding the signing of all of those autographs,...(mobs of fans, drug influence,dozens of autograph books thrown in their face,..and or just wanting to go back to the Hotel after the show....Thats what a lot of the people aren't thinking about.

True. Some might be thinking about not wanting autographs that require explanations like that Manzarek/Ink thing,  or autographs that are extremely atypical.
