What do the Bowie folks make of this early 70's Bowie signature?

Anyone else have an opinion?

This was signed by the same person and in my opinion it wasn't DB. Also Sharpie pen wasn't that popular in the early '70s and they are very atypical and similar.

Both are shown at Andy Peters David Bowie Autograph site in the Bowie Autograph Gallery as authentic 1973 signatures.

Here's another. I don't like any of them 

The first example posted does not have the expected appearance of 50 year old ink to say the very least. All look...unbelievably fresh.

+1

Here's another. Non signed in biro as most were during the early '70s. They are unusual in many ways but look similar. 

Very interesting. It is amazing then that they are all in the same exceptional condition, showing no age and fresh ink. 

Have you seen this thread?

Yes, I have thanks Eric

I'm not an expert on David Bowie, but something here looks very off.

The 'D' looks as if the person signing this slowed down and his hand was shaking, while 'Bowie' looks absolutely fluent. The flows look different - slowed down vs fluent.

If it was signed by David Bowie, I'd expect the whole signature to have only one flow overall.

It also looks super new. Like, too new in my opinion.

I'd say that in my opinion, this signature is not genuine.
