Is there any truth to Jimmy Smits having a ghost signer? I see it brought up all the time.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but the Obama autograph you received is indeed an autopen...here’s the same autopen on a book that I found in google.

I'm hoping for that. That would be pretty cool! Just gotta do some more research on his auto-pen before I decide to get it authenticated by PSA/DNA.

A sign to know if an autograph is an autopen (which Obama is notorious for) is heavy dark marks at the end of his writing the B and at the end of the O. I sorta see an indication that your signature does has those heavy dark ink marks (which are left from the autopen machine stopping at a part in t...

Congrats on the great success!

I have a generic pre-print from him that looks very similar to yours. I say you got the real deal. Good job! Real deal autos are the best. I have a real deal from Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter, and Bill Clinton. That would be amazing if it's the real deal. By any chance do you have a photo of the pre-p...

Could be the photo was the edge of the desk or other surface when he signed. I have an astronaut signed photo where part of the name ran off the picture. Certainly could be the case. Recalling my collection, I have at least a dozen or so that part of the autograph runs off the page. I have never ev...

Don't you think it would be weird for him to sign off of the picture in the B of his name if it was really him? I do agree. I have found one other PSA authenticated item that also has B cut off after you mentioned it in your post. That is definitely something to note though, it could be an indicator!

I sent a LOR, SASE, and two photos to a private address for Barack Obama and received back one of the photos I sent to him. I can confirm it's not a pre-print. I've been doing this long enough to know the signs of a pre-print. It could be authentic, but I'd like to see if anybody has any more inform...
