Never let the enthusiasm of finding something you want blind your judgement.
Also if this signature has elements of signatures 11 years apart that is a red flag to avoid the item. You should look at signature examples in my opinion within 2-5 years unless age or health become factors ...11 years between your examples is too much time in my opinion to use as references. Especially since this signature has characteristics of those 11 year difference signatures!

Thanks I appreciate getting a thoughtful response on this. Regarding the two examplers, I had wondered if it was possible it was signed between that time. However the part I mentioned in Mordecai did seem fishy plus it seems to be a very deliberate signature.
