Michael Jordan Autograph Help!!

[deeg23]

Hey everybody, my boss is trying to sell me this autographed MJ photo that he said his dad got in about 2000. I don't know if you can see in the picture, but the ink is bleeding a little bit so it's definitely live. Just from MJ's I've seen, it looks like the letters in the last part of the names are a little too pronounced than what he typically does. I could only upload one photo for some reason, but it's an 8x10 of him in his rookie year (#45) from his RPM Nissan dealership. So any help from people who know his sig better than me would be much appreciated (:

Thanks!

The photo is from 1995, not his rookie year. The #45 and Jordan X's date the photo.

Don't worry, I didn't think the actual photo was from his rookie year! Just the picture. But I stand corrected, for some reason I thought he wore 45 during part of his rookie year, not 1995. Thanks! Anybody have any thoughts on the sig?

Looks like a pre-print or re-print...

That is 100% not an authentic Michael Jordan signed photo. It is a common facsimile.

Hey yeah I just took a look under my loupe and I think I agree with you guys. Someone over on autograph mag live said he thinks it was stamped because of the evenness of how the ink bled throughout. I also didn't mention that on the back you can see some of the indentation marks and a little part where ink bled through the photo. Just curious if a stamp would push through like that or could it have been an autopen too? Mike, have you seen these RPM Nissan photos before? Here's the whole photo too.
