His signature is fairly easy to forge and there used to be a lot of bad ones. It could be okay but I personally don't like the V or the separation in the last 2 parts of his name but I'd wait and see what others think

Thanks for the input. I purchased it through a trusted seller on racc but since I'm not a very trusting buyer, I wanted to show you guys and see what you thought. Thanks again, Scott

What do you have for known exemplars? Post them.

Actually, I've gone through a few of my items and found this one and will change my mind and say this is good. Not his usual style but this one is authentic and matches the one you've shown.

I don't know this sig but those don't seem that alike other than at a glance IMHO. Are there more exemplars of this style?

Had a quick look on eBay and there are a few that are close. My gut said no originally but I feel it's now got a chance

Raw stuff or certed? There are observable differences in construction although not much to go on obviously. Not for me anyway. Post some known exemplars?

His signature is fairly consistent based on eBay. I don't have other examples with me so will say this is 50-50 with some positives but there is enough to say it's not real as well based on others

Known authentic exemplars are needed.

these were supposed to have been signed at the chiller Fest? I can look to see if they said what year but I believe they said it was an in-person. I have the sellers name and I guess it would be more appropriate to message me for the name than for me to post it.
