I have one of those signed sheets, too. it's very nice - though in hindsight it might have been better if the seller had printed 'facsimile siganture' on the back. On the other hand; it could be said that it's obviously a copy, because of the 'feel' of the card.

I had no idea that someone was trying to sell it at an auction. Not that it will do much good at this point, but I will print 'facsimile' on the back. I just didn't think anyone would try to pass them off as real, and I should have known better in this day and age. I assumed that being printed on an inkjet would be about the easiest thing to spot, and just thought most people would enjoy a little sample of his writing. Just for the forums info, the original note was only initialed, and I photoshopped in his full signature from another note that came with it. Both now reside at the project earth site in Hawaii, and were tipped into a set of a Hobbit and Lord of the Rings. I will attach a photo, if you like you might post on the forum just for everyone's info. My apologies to all.
