When it comes down to it, people will always comment if something is not real, I for one don't go for the "if they want to believe..." argument, it's bollocks. Charitystardonations... you should be aware more than most how important authenticity is, and I would have thought you as someone who wants to sell items would be more than interested in what is real and what is not. Regarding your KK response, charity letters get a MUCH better reception than fan letters, so yes there are occasions of real ones coming out, but I don't think you need to be a genius to figure out why that is.
Jen... this site is dross compared to what it used to be, I come on for the few decent posters and to see what is happening, but when it comes down to it, as long as people believe fakes are real etc, posts will be made. Look through recent feedback, people don't even understand that "happy new year" or "fave success" posts belong in other forums than feedback, so you've no chance of blocking petty bickering. I also didn't think the responder point this out was out of line, perfectly well mannered. If people don't ask before writing, or do their research, then they'll be told when they post feedback.
Such is life, I still get gutted when I get fakes, but I appreciate on the very few that I miss, that I can rely on people to present evidence to let me know. There are also plenty of fools on here who post incorrectly and claim all sorts of things about authentic signatures, so it works both ways.
Sorry to the OP, but it is indeed a preprint. If you tilt it under light, you'll see that the light does not "bounce" off the signature, meaning it is part of the actual photo print.
