    I have a team signed 2015 Chicago Blackhawks Stanley Cup celebration picture and some signatures don't look as always. I know with certainty it is real. People are people and sign differently at times. These looked legit to me.

    I've been fortunate to have items signed by the band in person so I can speak from experience when I say timing is everything. That is to say if time is of the essence and the individual is in a rush they may not have the opportunity to provide a "perfect" signature. When Ed played a private event in Toronto prior to the PJ20 movie premiere he was kind enough to sign my Benaroya Hall LP. Ed was running late and made a point of not signing for a couple of professionals but stopped in his tracks and signed for a woman in a wheelchair (all he signed was "Ed" on her guitar) and when he saw my item signed his full signature. I was grateful but my OCD notices the "rush factor" in it every time.

    I mention this because when you consider the show in Moline, the band flew in early afternoon and flew out right after the show. The window of opportunity for all members to sign is typically small during a typical show day, band members doing their own thing on their own schedules behind the scenes. Add to the mix a late arrival and the window of opportunity becomes even smaller. Every curve and every stroke may not be repeated between the Moline and Pittsburgh signatures, yet the nuances in the signatures remain the same.
