I'd need to see a more clearer pic of the signature. But i have seen 3 lots of Randy signatures in as many weeks. They have been reasonably priced, this one sold last night on ebay. I missed out and got out bid in the closing seconds.

Alot of forgeries have been made on photos when they were not available to buy at the time. So if the photo was not printed and available to the public how would it have Randy's signature on it. Many photographs became more available after Randy died as the original photographers started to sell them in music mags and shops etc. Plus the signature has the tell tale 'Love' dedicated above the signature which puts me off it straight away. Note the 'heart' underneath his name something i have never seen before.

I think Randy's autograph ( in post #1) looks like it was written by a female based on the finesse in the handwriting...

Good points about the availability of the photo back in the day. Some history about the photo itself would've been welcoming, especially for that kind of money...
