Many Elvis autographs on sale are just pre-printed eg: scarves that Elvis handed out in Vegas and several album covers are all pre-printed Elvis autographs. Elvis autographs are difficult to authenticate because there are so many variations on how Elvis signed his name during the 1950’s, 1960’s and 1970’s.
Below are a few examples of authentic Elvis signatures. This report offers Elvis fans an insight on what to look for when thinking of buying any Elvis autograph or Elvis memorabilia item.
Asks these questions before you buy any Elvis autograph?
1. How did the seller obtain the Elvis autograph?
2. Did Elvis sign the item in front of the person selling the item?
3. When, how and where was the autograph acquired?
4. Did the person ask one of the Memphis Mafia members to get the autograph?
Elvis Check 1958 and rare because most checks were only ever signed “E.A. Presley. This time Elvis actually wrote out the entire check
Very rarely did Elvis sign his name separately (top & bottom) Elvis signed Elvis Presley as one word – joined together. Usually he dashed the “i” in Elvis or not at all – never with a dot Elvis handwriting was never smooth he signed as if in a rush Take note of every letter separately in both “Elvis” & “Presley” NOTE: On legal document Elvis signed his name neatly and included his middle initial “A” for Aaron (Elvis A Presley) Elvis’ capital “T” look like the number “7” Oldest Elvis Autograph
Always beware of autographs signed with gold or silver paint “felt” pens as these pens did not go on sale until after Elvis’ death. Whenever considering buying an Elvis autograph, please insist on the history and background of how the owner came by the autograph. Always ask if Elvis signed the item in person. It is a well know fact that during the 1970’s many fans gave the members of the Memphis Mafia items to be signed at Elvis concerts or at the Graceland Gates. These minders have since admitted that they faked hundreds of Elvis signature and signed most of the items themselves. The history holds true for fans that sent requests for autographs by mail to Graceland. Elvis’ secretaries openly addmitted that she forged Elvis signature on many occasions.
