I am planning to purchase an Amy signed item for a friend's birthday, but I am having trouble distinguishing which one is real. They did not specify any COAs included. Would appreciate the help. Thanks very much!

Welcome to one of the most forged autographs in the world! The problem with Amy's signed items is that she is very easy to forge. Those ones you have posted don't seem authentic in my opinion.

This is the only real one for me now on ebay:

https://www.ebay.es/itm/Amy-Winehouse-Signed-4x6-Photo-Card-jsa/113...

This looks also good, but it was sold by RareandSigned, so in my opinion it's probably not genuine and copied/forged from an authentic one :

https://www.ebay.es/itm/AMY-WINEHOUSE-8-x-5-NOTEBOOK-PAGE-2009-SIGN...

I dont think either of the ones originally posted look genuine to me

The second one I wouldn't touch. The writing of liane and love is total different look at the e's especially with this source I would avoid it.

Amy is a really though one. As Fran said she is easy to forge but also the to original ones posted arn't legit in my opinion. In case of Amy you only can be sure if you buy first hand from a well known and respected IP collector or with die hard proof, I recall a helmet or something she signed  and there is a picture of her signing it.

I am sure a lot of autographs exist that look off do to her drug consume. So if you havn't luck with first hand or die hard proof. You only can look out to a 100% typical graph of her like the first one Fran linked to it and keep the fingers crossed. I was lucky and found a CD booklet with such a very typical signature of her for a good price and got a OK from Roger as well as two folks from here.

Here you have good ones (for me) to compare:

Sometimes it's easy to see the forgeries. But the good ones are difficult as she would sign drunk... 

This is great! Thanks for posting references, it'll really help me decide the real ones from the fake

Would you happen to know where else I could find other items she signed aside from ebay?

Hi Fran-

Are you saying that the above examples are all real?

I have all 3 of these "variations" and always doubted whether or not those signed like the index card were legit; I have a signed melody maker magazine that looks exactly like that.

I dont think some of the ones posted above are genuine imho.  Amy is one of the easiest sigs to forge

Good thing I decided to ask here first before purchasing the item! I was really doubting it as well because of the cheap price. Thanks a lot guys for your help! :) 

I would ask here as you have done. We are collectors and maybe we need to sell part of our items. Wait for a good one to come and think that the good ones don't normally sell cheap.
