That “known fake” Jennings is mine. I’ve always thought it was real, but every TPA has rejected it. I can trace its provenance back over 20 years, so it’s certainly more likely to be real that the recently created versions that have ended up being deemed “authentic” by the TPAs. I don’t have any hard feelings about them rejecting it as parts of the signature are atypical. I had asked the authentication companies if they would change their opinion if I spent the money to have the age of the ink tested. Their response was that they did not consider that type of evidence in rendering an opinion — seems a little ironic considering the current scandal.

Possibly someone was testing a few signature variants.
