Hi guys, I recently got turn on to this ray Charles autograph. My friend found it at a estate sale. It was cheap enough to take a risk on it, so I bought from him. I really wanted your guys opinion it it’s real or not ???? I would really appreciate your help.

Thanks for showing me that. Now I know it’s not a real signature. Good thing I only paid ten dollars for it.
