Hi 4077JHM -
I have some thoughts on the autographs, but first, may I ask how the autograph is obtained?
Jason :) .

Absolutely not authentic.

Barack Obama's signatures are never that sloppy. Also, it looks like this was signed by a right-handed person, and Barack is left-handed.

I would also like to add that the line connected to the "B" is too long :?

Its a forgery 100%. Here is why,


The top part of the "B" is smaller then the lower half. Barack always makes the top half bigger than lower half. Also note how pointy the top half of the "B" is. Baracks "B" is very fluent and not pointy. The vertical line in the "O" is much to elongated. And the "o" was not centrally completed. Not to mention the last character being to curvilinear. A horribly performed forgery.

it looks like a pre-print to me. i have a ton of brochures and letters from barack obama's campaign headquarters that have copied signature of his on them and that looks exactly like one of them. sorry its not authentic....but at least u got something back! good work! {thumb2}
