jim,

how did you get that info, is it true?

the dots are in the same spots, and even a master forger can't copy a sig exactly like that. so if that is what psa said, i am dumbfounded, and it would be scary to think that psa couldn't tell a printed copy. If it looks exactly the same as Ron K's example, there would be no way to tell if it was executed by a master forger BY HAND, because it's the same form and the same signature. If they mean master forger in the terms of it being photoshopped and/or printed on a laser scanner/printer, then they should say that, not just master forger because it gives the impression someone sat down at a table with pen and ink and made a very exact copy.

In my mind, it can't be anything other than a reproduced copy by a printer. But that's me. I am going to ask Donovan again what the verdict is.
