Classic old Jordan. I like it. Very difficult for all but the best Jordan forgers to duplicate that flow with that much fluidity, but there will be more members taking a look soon that are more knowledgeable than I am about Jordan's ink.
And now that you broke your cherry, you can do all of your lurking right here on the forum, as a contributor, with the rest of us, welcome aboard! 8)
I used to have one I traded that I got myself, in person, at the hotel he was staying at a long time ago! This looks to be almost identical. What do you see that looks off? Curious.
And the one I had was a photo/book cover, signed while supported by the hotel desk. Others I've seen from that period indicate that his signature was really consistent at the time.
And I'm not a Jordan expert, I could be wrong. My expertise on Jordan is strictly limited to the two pieces he signed in person for me over about a 3 year period while playing for the Bulls, the earlier of which is just about identical to this one posted here. Second one, three years later, the M and the J slightly different but very close to the one procured 3 years before, both of which look to me like yours. I've also studied online official exemplars, checks, documents, etc. and I see a consistency to yours and mine from that period. But that's why I was hoping others would weigh in too. Guys with Jordan's vibe clocked, like Chris, Terrier, Big John, and several others have Mantle down cold.
Sorry for the lateness in the reply. Although I am not a Jordan expert, I am familiar with many of his signatures characteristics through studying many UDA exemplars and comparing the many forgeries out there - which some are quite good - which I believe this to be one.
The two aspects that throw me off with this one is slant and flow. The characters are very narrow and slant too much. The signature does not have flourish like I have seen from MJ. That's a high level analysis I will provide.
Also, lets look at the medium. Its a photo signed in the perfect spot. Without UDA certification and/or iron clad provenance, you're not going to get this neat of a street signature from him. It has to be a sit down signature and he only does those with UDA. Therefore, with no UDA cert, I am again very skeptical.
My advice, if you want a nice recent signature, make sure its UDA unless you go vintage (80's-early 90s).
That's my two cents.
