I know nothing about authenticating signatures, but I would think if I was going to forge a Jordan signature on a dark background sportscard with the intention of passing it off as real (and valuable), I would take the extra 5 seconds to find a darker pen or switch out the $1 card to a lighter background so you could see the red signature on the card clearly. This feels more like an opportunistic situation where somebody with a Jordan card on his person sees Jordan, begs for an autograph and hands him the only pen he has on him at the time. But then, maybe this is what the forger wants me to think.
