Keith Richards x2 - real ones or fakes?

Hi everyone!

Would appreciate your opinion on these two Keith Richards, said to been obtained in London this year.

If real I’m thinking of buying one of them but having trouble deciding which one. But that’s a pretty nice problem to have... :-)

Thanks for helping!

I'm not the right person to ask. 

 but it does have the overall look of authentic.

lots of good Stones eyes here

This signature is fake, stay away.  There is a guy on eBay selling this photo, same signature, over and over.  Anywhere from $48-$159.  He is selling a secondary Richards, many times over with a sloppier signature, but the same on every photo.

I'm sorry - which do you say is fake? The color 8x10? I was only speaking to the photographs before and some content - not authenticity. I do not know this signature as well as others.

What do you think of the b/w Nicholas posted? To me, from what I can see at this point, it is either very rushed or perhaps not good - it seems very odd in or uncomfortable in some areas.

Eric, I was referring to the third option that Jan was inquiring about.  It is the color with him holding the cigarette.

Thank you Steve. Yes, for that price it seemed to good to be true.

Thanks to Eric and Nicholas too for your help!

The first photo w guitar appears the best image. It bears the most legible signature, has decent placement, decent contrast and also an added sentiment with a date (neither of which are on the color image which has lesser contrast/legibility).

Thank you Eric!

Would really appreciate more opinions on the last one in color, hopefully other members will help out!

What’s everyones opinion on this one? Signed in 2016.

An authentic street rushed signature according to me, do you agree? A close-up pic is attached also!

I’m a bit torn about the album cover, can’t decide if I love it or hate it... :-)

Would still appreciate opinions on the last one, the Rolling Stones Circus album! My thoughts is listed in the reply above, do you agree?

Thanks!

I'm not a fan of it. Could it be good? Perhaps, but I doubt it. With rare exception, only buy slam-dunk real autographs. This isn't one of them.
