I cannot find any examples where she signed books separately. so it would appear that they are either both genuine, or in some cases, both forged.

The one at the bottom is ok. - the other was copied from this.

One more example. Do you think this is a fuller example from the same hand as the bottom signature from the OP?

The fuller signature that I posted on page two looks like a solid example to me. If that’s fake, I suppose that anything is possible as far as the other examples are concerned.

Servi, after further looking into these signatures, I now agree with all your points. I think that all signatures you had doubts about are fakes. One of them - 100 % fake. The item on ebay was on sale along with a signing event ticket. And what do you think? I reached out to the bookstore Waterstones and the manager said they still have all the history of tickets for that signing event (6 September 2019): ticket numbers and full names. The ticket number for the book on sale turned out to be non-existent! Moreover, I checked the ticket closely and spotted photoshopped areas (photos attached).
Look at number "3", look at the misplaced closing quotation mark after the word "Grandude!". Apart from that, the ticket has other inconsistencies. Upon looking closer at the signature itself, it breaks off between l and m.

When a type of item requires this level of analysis and opinions are generally qualified even then, it is best to steer clear of anything that wasn't signed for you yourself, someone you know or someone you can definitely trust for other reasons (seller background, documentary evidence etc.).

I agree. In this case, also important is the order number of your book signing event entry ticket as it should be unique.

Sorry - the "Pau" ist a red flag. Not authentic. He signed different that day.

Yes, thanks to Servi, we came to this correct conclusion. The only authentic autographs in this discussion were indicated by Servi. I think that this should be regulated by law much better. Just imagine someone buying the fake autograph for US $7,999.95.
Isn't it a criminal offence for the seller to offer this fake?
