Harrison Ford: Real or Fake? 2nd Opinions

Hello everyone, this is my first day on this site and I just wanted to ask you all for your opinion. I have been collecting Star Wars autographs for many years and was able to meet Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill around two years ago and had them sign some things for me. I have never met Harrison Ford, and I don't think I will ever be able to meet him. I recently purchased a JSA authenticated autograph with a sticker and letter of authenticity. I just wanted to get your opinions on the autographs legitimacy even though it was certified by a large company such as JSA. I know that some people aren't a fan of the way Harrison has been signing for the last decade or so but I just wanted to hear what you guys have to say. Thanks a bunch!

I will admit freely that I love a nice older full signature Ford, but some of my favorite pieces were signed in the "modern" style, I can certainly claim to be a fan of both.

The Harrison half looks too neat, the Ford part seems a bit "rushed & crushed." The problem here is that an autograph from him is signed so quickly that the whole thing tends to be either readable or a rushed scribble. You don't usually see a mix of both in one signature. This piece has the overall correct shape and flow, but it doesn't have any of the tell tale signs of being signed by Harrison either.

Any celebrity can have a bad day, and one or even two things, might be off about a particular signature they give. Once you hit 3 strikes or even surpass that third strike, there is no reason to ever sticker something with that many issues.

JSA has never been the top TPA for modern celebrity autographs, but they do get Harrisons right some of the time, but this is not one I would have ever signed off on.

IMG_2490.JPG. What would you say about either of these? These are coming from Star Wars authentics. I'm just curious as to seeing a real one compared to a fake. I'd imagine these would be real because they are on the page officially endores by Star Wars, but you can never know I suppose. IMG_2491.JPG
