Looks pretty good to me. Here is a Spence authenticated example . . .

Don't like at all....many letters look uncharacteristically different than what I'd like to see. Last name looks sloppy and "flow" looks off.

It's not authentic, IMHO.

The bottom of the T is not smooth, the top of the d is open, the connection between the d and the W looks like the pen was lifted, and the s is very shaky/unsmooth. Even the top of the T looks like it was slowly drawn, with multiple pen lifts.

Also notice the two names are on different lines. His signature was a nice straight line. If you put a ruler under "Ted" you will see that is goes to the top of the head of the person on the left edge while 'Williams goes below his chin. Additionally, when did he change his name to Willlms? Was he Dutch? The person forging this certainly has trouble with the 's'.

Don’t like it.

No good imo

I really appreciate your opinions. Would have been an upgrade for me but I will pass. Kinda trying to get the set done and still need 22 of them and a few upgrades. Id anyone has any for sale let me know

The 'd' in 'Ted' is open which is a bad sign.

I'm not nearly as experienced as some of the guys here, but I also don't like it. Looks off to me.

Wow, as a huge Ted collector I'd love to see your signed 59 set. I've not taken the plunge to even aquire one as it's a seemingly rabbit hole.

Hopefully when you compare this item to those in your set you'll see the differences.
