Ted Williams autograph???

Try this exercise as an example of variance ...Use your own signature. Write it standing up, sitting down, while you are walking, write it using different pens, sign it small and large. Write it when you are ticked off and when you are happy, write it after a couple of beers, Then compare them... are they all exactly the same ??
Now make it MORE interesting compare those signatures of yours to something you signed 5 years ago, 10 years ago. None of them will be exactly the same all of the time.

Interesting! Leaving my example out of this, the "T's" in those examples look totally different. At least to this untrained eye!

Thanks. I'll give that a try. But my handwriting is terrible to start with!

For what it's worth when I write my signature it seems to come out differently quite often. I am sure it has changed over time.

Thought I would resurrect this thread that I started a while ago. I decided to put my magazine through the third party grading process and I received the results today. Genuine from JSA!! I had to crop the scan to fit in this thread. Obviously, I am very pleased, and it also adds to the fond memories of my hobby experiences in the mid 1980's.

It feels good to know that you have people on this site that know what they are doing. Nice piece.

Thanks. That is one of the reasons I registered on this site. I have been able to pick up some really good tips from great people!
