Arky had a great signature. One he took a lot of pride in. I’ve never seen a “rushed” signature that looked anything like this.

I've never seen a rushed one either.

agreed.I didn't like it but was hesitant to mention it since more folks are expert than myself

Thanks to each of you for your candid remarks. I had purchased the autograph, conditionally. I told him not to send it until I received guidance from a panel of experts. I told him it was very likely not genuine and he gladly returned my money with his apology. He is selling the autograph for a friend whose 91 year old father from Brooklyn purportedly obtained it in the 1940s.

I am very grateful for your guidance.

My assumption would be that it would have been snapped up at that price by someone who knows well (if real). The fact that it is still available (or was last I checked) tells a lot in my mind.

It’s a somewhat faded vintage signature. I’m wondering what everyone thinks this is worth. Vaughan is tough, but I don’t think $400 is that great of a price. I think it’s ok and fair as a signed photo is tough. I still think it’s real and encourage someone who’s interested to get a PSA quick opinion. I don’t care either way, I’m not interested in it.
