I've been looking on ebay for Catherine Bell autographs and had questions as to the authenticity of some up for sale. I was able to track down a few of the cards that she signed for the JAG Tk Legacy set.
I was just curious if she had ever signed like the one below...

I've never seen a signature from her before, though looking at the examples, the 'C' looks totally different in both, and also in the second one all the letters look more defined, where on the first they look squashed up together.

There are a ton on ebay signed like the second one. All of the authentic ones that I've seen are usually signed Cat or Cath W Bell, with the C always connecting with the A. Of course, I'm pretty new to all of this, so I was just trying to confirm that she never did sign like that. Thanks for the reply.
The only word of advice that I can say is to stay away from autographs on EBAY. While some autographs on EBAY are real, a very high % of them are fakes.
Many people on EBAY sell autopens/PP's/secretarials as the real deal. I've even seen forgeries, there are autographs where the seller signs the pictures & tries to pass it off as the signature of the celebrity.

Thanks for the advice. Does anyone happen to know any reputable dealers that might have her autograph? I've seen that the last two confirmed successes were preprinted photos, so I guess TTM is out of the question. Thanks.

http://www.autographworld.com They have been known to sell her autograph in the past and are the only autograph seller worth trusting...
Thanks for the tip! Yeah, those three cost me $100+ each. Of course, I'm normally a baseball card collector, so I'm used to it. (I still have to track down the two Variation cards, but they are looking to cost me $250 each. Ouch.) That seller is exactly what I'm looking for. I did find another seller that was supposedly a former editor or something like that for the "Autograph" Magazine (which I read on occasion). Thanks again!
