POSSIBLE AUTOGRAPHED WALKING DEAD COMIC BY CHANDLER RIGGS 2 2

[RazzBarry]

hey this is my first post im just looking to see if anyone with expierence can tell me if this looks authentic, and im almost 99% sure its not printed

I’d say go on eBay and compare against other signatures you find 

if you want official verification or authentication there are professional companies who will do that for a fee.  Not cgc.  
 

I do agree it doesn’t look printed

That looks like how he signed it 12+ years ago in looking at CGC SS books for sale on ebay with his signature on it.

Then, he started signing his name differently.  I got this one from him 9 years ago which compares similarly to other CGC SS signatures of his less than 12 years ago, also found on ebay.

He is only 23, so maybe he changed his autograph style after he learned cursive?

Looks childish, at least.

I was able to find this but I think your right this seems like a pretty old signature possibly from when he was a kid

Well... when he signed my book, he was around 14 years old.  So, he was a kid then too.

I see, by chance do you know if theres someone i can show this to or give this to to tell me if its real? Like if i were to go to a local comic store would they be able to do that? i dont really collect i just read so im not too knowledgeable about this i just found this at a second hand store lol. any help would be appreciated!:)

I don't think you should bother as if you brought it to 10 shops, 3 may say yes, 3 may say no and the rest, they don't know. The only way to be sure is to ask Chandler himself or give it to an expert. Based on the autographed pic in one of the posts, it does look like his. I would say just assume the signature is legit and enjoy it.

Just google “celebrity signature authentication” I’m sure you’ll come up with no shortage of professional service providers.  
do a bit of research to check reputation, and there you go.

but I gotta say you’re spending A LOT OF TIME on a book worth MAYBE $20
