Humphrey Bogart??

Thoughts on these 2 signed pages?
The second image seems to definately be the authentic one where as the first image seems to not look authentic!

Rob...

The 749KB image is a forgery.

The 1,7MB image in my opinion is authentic.

I'm concerned that the Bogart in the 1.7 MB image may be a machine signed copy. Look at the abrupt weight changes in the stroke, and how the "T" ends in a stop instead of trailing off.

If it is a machine signed copy there will be a genuine example very similar but just slightly off in a few areas.
