"Ever get the feeling you've been cheated?"... - Johnny Rotten signed

https://youtu.be/ArgUq9s13LM

Hello all.

Any opinions on this Johnny Rotten signed photo would be greatly appreciated.

It's not the prettiest piece and the autograph is quite condensed due to the size of the photo.

Many thanks in advance.

Hi - awful in my opinion, not one single characteristic going for it...

Thanks Mark. Didn't really have too much hope for this in all honesty. Was just clinging with a chance that it looked off because it was squashed.

Appreciate your opinion. Best wishes for the new year!

I'm fully convinced that the first sig i posted was poor, but do you think this one has any chance of being genuine?

I must warn you that aesthetically it's pretty horrendous, but i'm really just interested in the authenticity - if possible to detect!

Many thanks in advance.

Hi Judge

This one is better - The J of John is consistent with authentics I have seen and own.

The R of Rotten I am not keen on and the rest of Rotten is very rushed which is unusual because he has put the stars above it which take time... What would put me off personally buying it apart from the fade of the marker and the doubts about Rotten is the writing underneath. I don't like this but again it doesnt take into account how "under the influence" he was etc etc. All I can say is it is closer than the first example but I would be beware unless you saw it signed in person (which of course you didn't...)

Many thanks for sharing your valued opinion, Mark.

This is actually one that i own - for good or for ill. Infact, everything i post on here has been purchased by my hard earned cash. Trying to sort the good from the bad before i start replacing the squiggles from my heroes.

I thought that some of this looked okay compared to other various online examples - but i'm no way near experienced enough to know for certain. I've only seen the "A True Star" inscription on one other online example.

Your help and comments are very much appreciated, Mark. Cheers!
