Anyone think any of these signatures appear "shaky" or "unusual"? For what it's worth, the signatures are on a textured matte-board and done in a very fine black ink pen.

At this magnification they look good, but whats sticking out to me is that they are on a near perfect straight line with each other. You would think that if they were hand signed there wouldn't be this bottom alignment and the signatures would vary in height. Also the same pen seems to have been used for all the autographs, which seems a little strange. The personalization seems to look like normal hand writing i.e. words varying in height.
