It's likely Real Would just depend on how much there asking for it and how much your willing to pay for it. Should be a safe bet to buy

It's definitely real.  I used to own this piece and sold it about four years ago.  I bought it from one of the original owners named on the sheet, Cindy.  She said Michael signed it when he was 14 years old.

That provenance is hard to beat!

Is that a pun, (beat it).

That is an absolutely fantastic item to own! To have an autograph from Michael that was signed when he was so young and before such masterpieces as "Off The Wall" and "Thriller". That is an amazing period piece from one of the greatest icons in music history, and one that was not signed at some signing event, but rather signed by the artist for his fans at a chance encounter. You can just imagine it occurring right there in front of you. In my opinion, that's something to treasure!

Hi Krischan, I checked my records.  Looks like I sold it on eBay in 2013.  Also I looked back to what Cindy had said and she thought she remembered it being signed in 1972.  Hope that helps.  Jeff

I like this one, for sure its real. What do you guys think of this signature on a 1972 program. I bought it cheap as the seller didnt know if it was authentic or not, but the more older signs i see of his, the more I think it is real.

Boy is that an odd one, Charlotte! I agree with you, I think it's genuine. Perhaps middle-late 70s?

its on the 1972 concert program, but it feels to me to be more 77, 78 but maybe few years before but I dont think its as old as 72 do you?

I agree with you Charlotte. You've got a great eye. I'm looking forward to more opinions.
