Thank you Ivo and thank you Phil! Yes, its too beautyful to be real somehow. I thought that this particular item might have circulated around already, so maybe any of the users here has seen it somewhere before? maybe you discussed this particular one before? i found another photo which is on ebay now and was discussed before. now also authenticated by beckett. see picture

I am wondering another thing. i always thought that JSA, BAS etc will put the sticker on the item itself. but i see a lot of items on ebay where the sticker is on the COA, not on the item itself. is that a typical thing?

You can have the cert sticker stuck on the LOA or on the autograph, you can decide.
This Mj looks rushed signed but in my opinion it is authentic but not beautiful.

And below the comparison of Beckett and that of JSA
JSA's is more authentic than Beckett's.

It is difficult to find an authentic MJ photo with a signature, there are many very good forgers who forge MJ's 2000s handwriting.

I would recommend you buy one from the 80 / 90s
or from the 2000s but then from a trusted collector and seller.

I've heard of TPA putting their stickers on the back of the photos so as not to ruin the photo, however, a piece with no corresponding number is a big red flag to me...

This red jacket mj is authentic IMO albeit a rushed one

comparison of the very first shown autograph (authenticated by Beckett) with another current listing on ebay (authenticated by JSA). might be from the same person? maybe mr jackson? man, so difficult to tell...

Thank you for the list, Phil! That will help.

Excuse me for my confusion. what I meant about Erick Mckay was... the first beckett autograph that i posted in comparison to the examples which are by Erick Mckay. Maybe the beckett one is also a Mckay? well, we will never know...

Oh! Ivo! I have seen them on ebay! Those are yours? What a funny coincident. I was thinking about it actually. But I think I would prefer without dedications to make it feel more like mine. I dont know if that makes sense. on the other side, they really look beautiful!! i will think about it
