I hope I uploaded it correctly; anyone willing to offer an opinion on whether or not this appears to be authentic.
It's not dated, but it's described as an early signature.

Thoughts?

I am very hesitant to give an opinion because I would like the context--is it a signature on a flyleaf of a book or what, and, if it is a book, which book?

I'm working on getting more but this is the only pic I have at the moment. I don't have the book yet but it's on I'm interested in.
It's listed as an early signature in a first edition of Carrie. I've asked for more details or provenence on where it came from.
I usually avoid signatures that aren't in a limited but the seller does appear to have a good track record with King items (Shibus on ebay).

For what it's worth, here's the signature on my 1st edition of CARRIE. They look the same to me.

There does appear to be a lot of slimilar points so it does raise my confidence level a bit.

Thanks for sharing -- nice copy by the way.
