edited November 2009 in The Porch
I have a Drum Head (think that's what you call it) and it was supposedly signed by all the members of Pearl Jam, it came with an Authenticity Paper, but doesn't look to be ligit. I looked up the signatures and they seem good, but I would like to get it authenticated. Any suggestiosn of reputable places? either internet or Northern NJ / NYC area.

Thanks!

    It will cost you $100 for the whole band, $20 any individual member of PJ, and they can Authenticate you drum head

    Here ya go... Please let me know what you guys think and if I can send it to the TEN CLUB to check out. I just want to know for myself, if the majority says YEA then I won't get it authenticate as long as I know.

    well eddie's signature has chance over the years, the E V "were" huge long time ago, but still looks kind of funny :oops:

    Maybe I will PSA it then, if it's worthless i'll trash it no point in keeping it.... I received it as a gift about 4 years ago and my friend at the time didn't tell me where it was purchased or how much she paid.

    No need to send that to PSA/DNA. It looks to be a terrible forgery. In fact I would say 100% fake. I have over 100 examples that I use to authenticate Pearl Jam sigs, and I have been examining autographs for 20 years. (mostly baseball, but still I have quite a bit of time invested in it.)

    Wait for others on this board to ring in as well. We have quite a few people knowledgeable about Pearl Jam signatures and you can get a consensus.

    Also Santos lil halper looks these things over for the 10 Club.
    Save your $100.00 and send it to him.

    Then you can beat on this thing with sticks and feel a little bit better.

    Thanks! How can i get SANTOS to take a look? I know he's always posting, but is he reading??

    And instead of beating it with a stick, I'll find her and beat her w/ a stick.. HAHA

    Not sure how the process goes. I just know it happens, cause I've been involved in a half dozen of these types of threads.

    Perhaps find a Santos post and PM him? That should work.

    100% FAKE sorry to also confirm what others have said already, but it is indeed not authentic...

    Can you elaborate on why? I've seen a lot of different versions of their signatures and celebrities signatures in general, but from everyone's input I am now leaning toward giving it to my dog to play with...

    Thanks everyone for your input!

    I'm really sorry man but thats definitely a fake.

    Not one of those looks like the real thing.

    But to be double sure, send it via an attachment to an email to <!-- e --><a href="mailto:info@tenclub.com">info@tenclub.com</a><!-- e --> or pm it to Santos, and he'll do a quick once over for you...

    but genuinely, that looks awful. No difference in pen pressures, same colour pen, in fact same pen, and the vedder looks nothing like unless it was a 95 signature...Mikes is too neat, and jeffs? what is that?

    The dog is in for a treat

    Hate to agree with everyone else, but of all the signatures around here for the past 5 years or so, none of yours are even remotely close :(

    I have an autographed towel from Ed and I've seen his change over the years but don't look anything like the one you've presented.

    Sorry... :cry:

    I was wondering who is at 3:00 as well.

    Good point about pen pressure, too.

    Sadly that is supposed to be Mike McCready.

    Of all the fake sigs on the drum head that one is the worst.
