Siganture looks good, and apparently this dude worked at some radio station. Do you actually think he faked all the signatures?

I don't understand your need for these items but then I have no idea why I'm still keen on information about a moribund force ~ Pax?

is that not unsurprising, seeing as the ebay one probably dates back 25 years? My signature mutates every few years. Makes me seriously relieved they brought in chip and pin!

Is that one month old signature the only one you guys have to compare with?

And what about Johnny Logan, anyone got his signature as of late as well? ;D

As deadagain points out it's not uncommon that signatures (like my own) is changing quite a bit over the years, but there is usually similarities.
I am no handwriting expert, but I am pretty sure the guy who signed the one in question also signed these from two other sellers:

All look to me well within range of possibility given we know the sig on SGWBM is genuine ;)

what I see is, that there are 3 different dots over the "i". That´s unusual. even obver years. also the line in the t is always different. Don´t think that such things change so much over the years. That are basics. Changing things are the letters on the beginning and at the end. But who knows ...

Anyone got a (genuinally) autographed Damage Done? That would be impressive!

and that sig is practically identical to the one i got from him in leeds last month...and by "practically identical" i mean so incredibly similar as to throw considerable doubt on any others which are noticbly less so. ultimately it doesn't matter a shit: lots of people have died happy thinking that they owned a piece of the true cross...doesn't mean they got into heaven. :twisted:
