That said, if you are looking for a common signature, like the two you mentioned, there is really no need for a TPA cert at all. There are many, many examples and their signatures are well known and readily identified. You might try Jim Stinson. He's a member here and always has a lot of good stuff.

Along with Jim Stinson, I would offer up Kevin Keating and Bill Corcoran.
