Tezuka In English Discussion Forums

Hi everyone,

Well I recently get this original art which is a master's signature on a Tezuka fan magazine (resolution downgraded to avoid copy).



Photography is his discussion with Ishimori Shoutarou on a coming partnership project during a manga tankobon festival in 1985. Note that Fujiko Fujio and Aki Reiji are on the picture.

3 parts of the autograph make it have small variations with the autographs I saw on this official website.
I'd appreciate to have comments.

You certainly all know as me that autograph is a true hazard research.
So speak free of mind.

Have been fooled is a possible option but I don't think so :
- Complexity of writing.
- The time of 1985 where fakes were not on Ebay each day long.
- Use of the artist name and not legal name.
- Wrote on a magazine and not a piece of paper.
- Japan source (seller wrote that first source was Mandarake).
- There's no similar signature on Google.

Any idea of an auction house able to authentify this signature and provide a certificate ?

still looks fake to me, on the other hand:
In the face at the end the eyes chanced froms vertical stripes to horizontale bows. If somebody try's to fake it he/she would stick to the vertical stripes.

sorry it seems fake to me, those horitzontale bows... Ia always see-saw them verticals.
This is the signature I have:
