    I hope someday a piece of paper I sign will be worth millions
    I just don't trust anything that bleeds for five days and doesn't die.

    I'm at work so i don't have the link...but if you look up "Ed Vedder signing autographs" on youtube you'll see one where it's a bunch of people waiting for him outside his hotel with all the same (seemingly) small poster for him to sign. Ed signed them all saying that he would sign one per person...so yeah if the mood takes him he'll sign for anyone, even "professional" ebay autograph seekers haha

    Wanna see some fake ones, just check these out...
    DO NOT BID on them...

    These people are trying to pass them as real since they have the new E. The photo is a better try than the Cubs helmet but I am almost positive they are both fakes.

    going back to an earlier post i made in this thread, something which you touched on: in this day and age of PJ message-boards/photobucket/eBay etc. legitimate examples of signatures appear almost immediately after being obtained, and as a result news travels far and fast RE: the "new E" and fake autographs are manipulated to reflect the latest subtleties.

    ^^^ both of the sigantures on the 2 items being auctioned off are fakes, in my opinion. the subtle differences between these fake signatures presumambly signed by eV recently and legitimate examples of eV's current signature are too obvious to ignore,...
    To quote the 10C from Newsletter #8: "Please understand we have a lot of members and it is very hard to please everybody. If you are one of those unhappy people...please call 1-900-IDN-TCAR."

    Those two (dollar bill & pick guard) are both in my opinion real. I would basically guarantee it. Ed's signature has changed several times over the years and some collectors like myself have a real fine judgment as to what is real and what is not.

    in all honesty, depending on eV's mood on any given day, if an individual approached in a polite manner and eV felt like signing an autograph he absolutely would. it's pretty easy to spot the autograph sellers in a crowd waiting for eV at the airport/hotel/venue, but eV will still sign autographs for everyone once he starts signing.

    as for getting 10C's authentication, which 10C is more than happy and willing to do for ANYONE by the way, it will require having the item mailed to 10C's office where the 10C staffer will just ask the band member in question to confirm the signature.





    here's a recent (obtained at Massey Hall in Toronto during eV's recent solo stop last month) example of the LATEST version of the signature for your consideration:

    http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c256/BeerBaron78/EV%20Poster/EastCoast2287.jpg

    the most obvious change that's already been mentioned in this thread is the way eV know signs the letter E in his 1st name, as opposed to way he signed it pre-solo tour, an example of which is the signature i obtained from eV September/'07:

    http://s55.photobucket.com/albums/g136/100Pacer/?action=view&current=Tambourine005.jpg



    the same seller selling the Cubs jersey AND the poster you mentioned above also has the following Telecaster for sale, "signed" by eV:

    http://cgi.ebay.com/EDDIE-VEDDER-Pearl-Jam-Signed-Fender-Guitar-PSA-DNA_W0QQitemZ230288721092QQihZ013QQcategoryZ53267QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem



    the guitar mentioned above comes with said PSA DNA certification, but i've got to tell you i have NEVER trusted and will NEVER trust that type of authentication, if for no other reason than the signature on the guitar is 100% fake!

    in this day and age where PJ fans are doing exactly what's being done in this thread, which is to post images of legitimate eV/PJ signatures, individuals who make a living knocking out fake signatures have an invaluable source from which to draw on examples of real autographs which they will then attempt to duplicate, in most cases quite poorly. tossing in the infamous "eV wave" in a signature might fool the casual fan into believing the signature is real but even the wave signed on the guitar is bogus.

    ultimately, when it comes to purchasing signatures one thing is certain: buyer beware. sorry for the long post, just my $0.02

    is it just my imagination or does it appear to you as though eV signed the words "To" and "Joey" to reflect a smiley face? :)

    Just a word on PSA...

    The FBI is sniffing around them right now because they have received a lot of complaints that PSA is improperly inflating the cards they grade for a handful of companies that they do the most business with. These are companies that send thousands of cards to PSA and make up a bulk of their business. So I wouldn't be surprised if they are authenticating some "suspect" signatures for their best customers.

    So it is safe to say that they have had a pretty good reputation up until now, but it might just start to unravel very soon.
