I'd buy it if maybe ONE had such a steep angle, but not 4 or 5... The J on the ones that have been coming back are completely different from his IP. In fact, he typically makes his J's "backwards," so the "forwards" J's that are coming back are clearly off. The rest of the sig is also off, like the "son" is typically very contained, and does not flow "out." If the people with IPs they got themselves want to scan and post copies of the IP sigs that would be useful too.
2. For a definite authentic, here is a link to a Star Wars autograph trading card:
http://www.endlessworld.com/images2/sta ... samuel.jpg. The one listed above that was sold on starwars.com also is authentic.
3. Since it was mentioned people couldn't find an example of an authentic TTM, I have one on my site. (I know there are others out there too.) It matches the card (and known IPs) but not the TTMs that have been coming out of this address.
4. I have no explanation for why the note is circled with more notes. It is true that the assistants who open the mail might be having some fun. I had an autograph returned from Lara Flynn Boyle (who had problems with anorexia) that tastelessly said "It tastes just as good on the way up" in response to one of my questions.
5. For the people who sent their stuff to get authenticated, please make sure they are a reputable authenticator. Even purportedly reputable places like PSA-DNA are getting really sloppy in recent years.
That is a pretty big leap you are taking about Psa. They are more of experts on autos then anyone on this site.
