URGENT............if you had to say what this signature was..................any handwriting experts???

[fannyannie]

what would you say it was??? here

and secondly does it resemble anything like this one????

OMG - do you really think it is??? I keep looking at the two versions of his signature that have been found (MP's and my 2nd link) and seeing 'differences' - then looking again and seeing similarities......

get it checked. cancel the listing untill you get it verified.

yes it looks genuine

sometimes those things aren't worth much though

don't get TOO excited

then again - woo hoo! you never know!

fannyannie how many times does your signature look slightly different???!!! I know mine does often. I really would have it checked you could be sitting on at least a holiday..lol

agree with misdee..

the A is very similar. get it verified.

MP - if it is genuine it's gotta be worth more than £2 I've got it listed for LOL.

Listing now cancelled..........now how do I go about getting it authenticated and valued????

my signiture is never the same.

it always amazes me that mine differ so much....

Dh has said maybe contact an auction house and ask for help as if genuine it could be something that sold at southerbys or christies to check if it is reproduction or genuine.

I'm pretty sure the age is correct - I was about to reply to the question about publication date saying I'd managed to date it to pre-1900 (through other stuff on it) it's just whether or not the signature is real or not.......

any good?

might be worth emailing him as he might know some authenticators.

I am all excited for you..pmsl

I have my fingers crossed for you that this genuine, even if it only nets a couple of quid, because I can't think of a nicer person to get the luck xx

thanks Nemo - may send them an email in the morning.

well they say good things come in 3's and today I've found out we've got the Maternity Grant, that DC3 is no longer breech.....could this be the 3rd???

If this is the 3rd, then I think you should have Arthur or Sullivan somewhere in DS3's name

ooo maybe not LOL - first name already picked can't have an S as middle initial (DS2 already has one with same first inital) and don't really want a vowel....

gilbert then..pmsl

when are you due QoQ?

ROFLMAO - can you imagine it Takunda Gilbert

LTH 05/06/07

sounds good to me..pmsl

i bet the last thing youwant me to say is "Ohhh not long now then??"

Maybe not to me, the un-PG woman but to you I bet it feels like years away.

I hope it whizzzzes by for you
