Well, firstly congrats to that success!! One year back I had a VV success from him as well, and the sig looked a bit odd to the others, so a discussion started weather it is authentic or not. Now I see yours and it totally looks the same, the handwriting and everything. The difference is that he wrote "John" under "Elton" and he made a little separation line.
So please tell me if you are the same opinion or not, it would really help!
Thanks man

Phil - i think yours is authentic.
The reason he separated on different lines is because he would have written across the picture. When signing photos most stars aren't interested in writing across their face so you can't see them!

I have to disagree. A little searching has never hurt anyone in my opinion. At least you all know he will sign if you can get the address. I've done many hours of searching in the past for addresses and found I have much more appreciation when do I get a success, knowing I worked to get it and succeeded.
A lot of people these days think their the government, other people work hard to find addresses and when they get successes, everyone swarms in & wants the address, no congratulating the poster on getting a reply.
& believe me, I've heard all sorts of excuses like (and I'm not quoting any one in particular here)
'I'm just not good at searching for addresses' well if you don't do it enough you won't be! or
'I've looked everywhere' Which by the way is not true because if they had looked everywhere they would have found it

you gotta learn to be creative and think. Brain Power people!

you aren't going to find these addresses in just mere minutes, it takes time and effort and HOURS sometimes to find them.
so there, rant over!
OH! and congrats on the success! I love his 'Crocodile Rock' song a lot and listen to it often on my old vinyl record.
