The Doors and Jim Morrison autographs--would appreciate opinions on authenticity

I respect a lot of what I've read on this site. So much so that I'd love your opinions on this Morrison/Doors supposed authentic auto.

American rock band The Doors, 4 1/2" X 4 1/2" inches, 1970, Hand signed by American rock band The Doors, Set of hand signed autographs, signed by all original members of American band "The Doors". These signatures are like gold dust nowadays. To find a set like these is next to impossible. These were signed in England in 1970. Signed on paper. The paper is showing signs of age, with some foxing, and one signature is on the back with three on the front. Still a very rare set to get your hands on. The foxing looks worse in my photographs than when you have it in your hand. All the autographs are still very clear. The Doors were an American rock band formed in 1965 in Los Angeles, with Jim Morrison, Ray Manzarek, Robby Krieger and John Densmore. size 4 1/2" X 4 1/2" inches

Many thanks,

Chris

Here it is. Is there anything, at least, about it that looks authentic?

One thing I do know...it's in ball point pen. You can see the imprint of the ball point pen on the back.

Thanks for posting Teresa but I'm also sorry to say that unfortunately it is not authentic and agree with Paul that nothing is correct about this example...

I was afraid of that, luckily I didn't spend a fortune on it. But I will keep on looking and shopping. Jim Morrison is my favorite artist, and I'm determined to find the real deal....Thanks Jack.

I can't really imagine what Morrison or Lennon would be writing now under these...trying times. The quality would be there I expect, but I have no concept of the reaction. It would be strong. Lennon at 78? Morrison at...64? I'll be 64 in about 16 years, ouch. But then, I have NO intentions of knitting anything by the fireside...I'll fix your fuse if your lights have gone but...

A lot of the young pop stars are produced, with songs written for them.
Morrison predicted back in the 60s, that he see's music in the future with one person and machines.
