Received: My Photo back signed in my SASE
Time Taken: 8 Months (January 1st 2014 - August 16th 2014)

I sent this photo to a studio where she was doing a weekend swimsuit and underwear photo shoot in New York at the start of this year. I haven't seen many autographs of hers, so I really don't know if it's authentic or not. It looks similar to one that I've seen that has been authenticated by GA (Global Authentics) who are highly respectable. The autograph does look a little stop start, but not sure if that has anything to do with the pen or the glossy photo.

Global Authentics is not reputable as they once were. I have found this online about it.Please beware of GAI authenticated stuff. GAI (Global Authentication Inc) went out of business in 2009. Prior to that it was said to be one of the big 5 in sports Authentication (along with PSA/DNA, JSA, Beckett, and TRISTAR). GAI was actually founded by a founder of PSA that left that company. In the beginning of GAI's existence it was a very highly reputable company. It was actually harder to get a signature authenticated by GAI than PSA/DNA. Unfortunately along the way GAI made some bad financial decisions. It is then when an unscrupulous authenticator from GAI began authenticating garbage. Beware of GAI certs. Now the market is flooded with GAI certified stuff that is fraudulent and that MAY NOT cross authenticate to PSA/DNA or JSA.

just an fyi, GAI became GA in 2009 when the company was bought by new owners. That's why all items authenticated after 2009 have the GA logo/trademark on the certificates, instead of the GAI.

the signature looks good. i had her sign a few photos while she was at the sxsw festival and yours match up to mine very well

Congrats! I have been meaning to send to her. I wonder if she will sign via the database address?

I hope it is real. I was worried because a lot of her autographs on cards (panini etc) they look really neat. Mine looks more like an in person autograph.

I'm honestly not sure. I don't think I've ever seen anyone report a success from her. Worth a try maybe?
