Opinions please on this Jackie Gleason signed photo........

I compared this signature to the thread from a few months back with the Gleason signatures, but was hoping for some of your opinions. Thanks in advance.

Hi Steve,

I'll comment since you asked me to, but I'm not the best person for it. I haven't been following the Jackie Gleason secretarials that closely, but I don't think it was actually signed by Gleason.

It looked like it was pretty close to the example from the thread showing his signature from the tv show What's My Line. I'm leery of sending it to PSA since they are authenticating secretarials. Is there anybody here that you would recommend taking a look?

Yes, ask Brick Hunter. I hope PSA and JSA aren't authenticating secretarial Gleasons anymore. But you don't need them to get a good idea. And don't forget to check www.thecead.com.

Steve, can you ask him to take a look at this one? Thanks.

I own a couple, but remember I'm no expert. I'd take a pass on it. I think there are a couple of red flags with the shaping and spacing of it. We've seen another item signed in this pen or one similar which had characteristics much the same and sort of look like sloppy hybrids between the secretarial and authentic.
