From the seller: 

Provenance: These autographs were obtained in-person by a famous autograph hunter Mr. Eric Rapo (1946-2004). He collected one of the most valuable in person autograph collections in Europe in the 1960's-2000's. He met even The Beatles in London in 1966, and met there also Jim Morrison and the other members of The Doors in 1968. He gained practically all possible music super starts in his collection. At the moment there are for sale also many other items from his collection on eBay. (Take a look at the other items I'm selling at the moment as well). You can find more information about Mr. Rapo here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erkki_Rapo

This is absolutely genuine in my opinion. All four signatures are correct including Jim's. Notice the unusual little hook in Jim's "I" in "Jim" and compare it to the "I" in "Morrison" in this authentic signed check. A forger would never think to do this.

Thanks, Jack. That's helpful. John's and Jim's are so shaky that they're above my paygrade.

I’ve seen it before and it looks authentic to me.

Ballroom,

I didn't know what to make of it. Do you have any exemplars for Jim that might help me see that his is likely real?

Thanks
