bump - Any opinions on the John Belushi or other cast signatures are appreciated.  

I have read Micko's John Belushi Signature Study posted here in 2014.  Based on these examples, I do not believe the Belushi SIG is authentic.  However, I am more hopeful about the six signatures on the cast photo despite the GAI sticker.

As always, thank you for sharing your experience and opinions.

The Belushi is definitely way off. I have 2 authentic John Belushi graphs and recently sold another. This one is not even close. The only other graph I can comment on is John Landis. The example in the multi-signed piece is very similar to a couple in my collection. If I were a betting man I would think its likely authentic. I am not familiar enough with the other signatures to comment. Hope this little bit of feedback helps.

Thank you for the feedback Tacoma Blues.  I did a lot of research on the John Belushi but could not find an authentic example that looked similar so not surprised.  Your positive feedback on the John Landis is also appreciated and gives me more confidence in the cast signed photo.  Thank you for sharing your knowledge and opinions.

The Bruce McGill looks okay to me and the Matheson looks close too. Not familiar with most of the others.

Thank you for taking a look and sharing your opinions Dan.  I try to do my homework before posting on this forum.  I felt the cast signed photo looked good but always reassuring to get feedback from the experts on this forum.  I appreciate your time and continued support as I try to get better at this.

No worries at all. Most people would see the sticker on the bottom right and run a mile but this looks like the cast signed is genuine and you got a really good item

Thanks again, Dan.  I am aware of GAI's reputation and appreciate you looking beyond the sticker. 

Obviously, I wish the Belushi were authentic too but very happy the cast signed photo looks legit.  I continue to learn from the members of this forum and appreciate you taking the time to share your comments.
