Lou Gehrig Autograph Help
 
1 Attachment(s)
So,

I came across this one at a fairly local auction and must say that I have not seen a similar exemplar... The signature has been authenticated by a reputable TPA, but something just makes me feel uneasy about it...

Any other thoughts? good/bad/indifferent?

Thanks in advance!
Dave

I don't like it much either - but the tpa, whether right or wrong, will be all that the future buyer cares about

The L and the last G in gehrig bother me.

Thanks guys...

The piece that really gets me is the start of the upper loop in the "L" I have only seen exemplars that start to the left of the post...

I'm not crazy about this Gehrig, either. But...

Here's a genuine Gehrig (1939) in which the upper loop begins to the right:

Thanks for sharing David. The one in the auction seems to have a very hard start and extremely thick lines...
