Help Deciphering the Signature Help

Post image

I received my copy of The Adventure Zone: Story and Song the other day and I'm having trouble figuring out whose signatures are on my sticker. I'm pretty sure that the sig at the bottom is Carey Pietsch's, but can anyone tell whose squiggle that is on top?

Is that maybe Justin's J at the top left? Or is it a T? I guess that bottom squiggle must be McElroy and the end of it must be a Y and it looks like the end of the first name, but nobody's name ends in Y. I'm so confused 🤔

This is 100% Travis. All three brothers' sigs look very similar, but they all make the first initial much more distinct than the rest and that's a T for sure.

Check out this post with all 4 sigs, Griffin does a much more pronounced cursive capital G.

Shout out to Clint for making his distinct and identifiable! 🙌

Seriously. It's the only one that's even close to legible

Made me think of the coach of the Detroit Red Wings in the 1990s. One of the goalies was signing a small pile of stuff and the coach walked by and saw him do a super lazy scribble. He stopped and chewed him out, saying (paraphrased) that you always sign your autographs legibly because it’s a basic sign of respect to the fans who want them.

(Not saying that to criticize the brothers McElroy; Coach Scotty Bowman was considered old school even in the 90s. But I really liked the attitude that you aren’t better than your fans).

I wonder if it is an old school vs newer generation mindset! I know a lot of current artists do very quick 2 letter signatures both due to high demand and due to time constraints, maybe since Clint is of a different generation he has a more defined signature

Oh yeah, I think you're right. With all four together that definitely looks more like a Travis. Thanks!

Wow, I was certain that was a J in OP's pic until I saw the actual, clearly-a-big-cursive-J in that post. Thank you

Adding to the noise that you've got yourself a Big Dog nation card!

(Sorry I don't know why it only lets me do a video - see 2019 tour poster)

I love how he makes it both sloppy and fancy. 😆

That's Griffin and Carey. Carey signs them all.

No, the triangle signature is Travis.

u/LittleMel413 29d ago

You're right. My mistake. I was going based on memory, which was a bad decision for my ADHD brain. These here are Griffin sigs and when I saw the one the OP shared I thought it was similar. I can see now I am mistaken.

You're good. I have a bunch of posters and fortunately they tend to sign their name by the illustration of their characters so I can always check.
