Anyone here familiar with Eddie's autograph?

Does this appear to be authentic?

    Haven’t seen the E touch the d before, usually has a slant.

    When you refer to E touching d, is that the first two letters of Eddie or e touching d as second and third letters in Vedder?

    This appears to be a similar example I found on psa dna's website

    Op, go with PJammer4life. Not worth taking a chance. Heartbreaking what folks do. It crushes people that buy a fake because it means more then money. Very bad to mess with selling fake signatures. They sellers are in for a rough haul at some point. It is like messing with voodoo. 
    I get the jitters typing that word. Vapors are coming. have to lay down. :)
    Be different & make a difference. Decency & kindness @ a grassroots level works.

    First 2 letter of Eddie. Here are the examples of what I have. The V in Vedder also does not touch the e. However, I have seen some signature variations lately, but usually on a curved baseball, not flat paper.

    Even some of the PSA authenticated signatures on eBay look sketchy to me. That is why officially signed/#d AP posters or albums like the Backspacer band signed are so sought after. When the signed Ohana 2020 posters are delivered, I’d check to see if Eddie has changed his signature like yours or not.

    For what it's worth, here is what his signature looks like on the item listing for the signed Ohana posters. The top of E is not connecting to the top of d on Eddie and vedder has a squiggly e after V that is not present in my examples

    Just checked two of my EV signatures, obtained from a very reliable source. Both have the E connected with the D and the V connected to the E. These are recent style signatures obtained in 2018 and 2019 which are more like the example the OP provided.

    That said, if you have any doubts at all about authenticity I would leave it. You’ll always have the suspicion that it isn’t real.

    I can probably lay claim to Ed’s most rushed version of his current signature. Ed was kind enough to sign but if I wasn’t there to witness it my OCD would probably obsess over it:

    I sent the pic to Roger Epperson for a quick opinion and he thinks it looks fine. 

    Roger is a top authority on music autographs.

    Here's a direct comparison between Mine (on top) and a PSA authenticated example taken from their website (on bottom)



    They compare quite favorably in my opinion. But I'm no expert. Thanks everyone for your feedback.

    Just to buy that 11x14 photo from danny clinch is 900. It's a great picture. Does anyone know what specific show that is from. If it was Stanhope NJ, I wuz there!
    I tried to get ev to sign something for me, but when I met him big Pete said no sigs. Had to respect that. Someone asked and he took his lp away! It was an Orpheum so easyish to replace. Honestly don't know if I'd ever put that much time in again to meet him. Plus I imagine that he wont be greeting fans up close anymore or signing anything. It was awesome and got a couple picks out of it!

    That is not too bad actually. I got one from him Nov 2019 that was even more rushed than that. The "Vedder" on mine looks the same as yours, but the "E" on Eddie is in one swoop so that it almost looks like a "B". But, least I know it's real as it was done in front of me.
