Overall Assessment
A high-quality, authentic-looking signature of a Hall of Fame hockey legend on a casual fan item.
Authenticity Assessment
Highly likely authentic (95% confidence level) based on signature flow and known placement on Canucks jersey fabric
Signature Style
Cursive, stylized script. Features a distinct 'D' with a loop that connects into a rapid 'S' surname. Usually includes his jersey number #22 in a full signature.
Signature Characteristics
Fluid motion with consistent pen pressure. The 'D' shows a slight lean, and the 'S' is often more of a wavy line than a defined letter, ending in a downward flourish.
Ink & Medium
Black permanent marker (Sharpie) on orange or Vancouver Canucks celebratory fabric medium.
Item Description
Orange technical fabric garment with black marker autograph; likely a promotional item or fan shirt.
Estimated Value
$40 - $80 USD (as a standalone autograph on a shirt); $150+ if on a certified jersey.
Comparison to Known Examples
Very consistent with authentic NHL-sanctioned signing events from 2011-2015.
Authentication Tips
Look for the specific 'D' loop and the rapid, rising stroke of the 'S'. He often signs in tandem with his twin brother, Henrik Sedin.
Certification Recommendation
Beckett Authentication Services (BAS) or JSA (James Spence Authentication).
Red Flags
No significant red flags observed; the bleed-through and pressure are consistent with an authentic Sharpie signature on fabric.
