I was in the process of making my own custom assassins creed Betsy Ross 5x3 american flag for personal display
but the hand embroidery was taking an age
Just as I liked it so much and none where up for sale then UbiWorkshop announced a public sale so I shelved that idea

I had a few of these authentic prints & signed letters in my possession. In my opinion, the signatures are not hand written. They're printed signatures. The signatures line up exactly on the few examples that I had. The paper that the letter is written on is very flimsy. It's just a cheap, very thin, regular sheet of paper; the kind that you use on your home printer. There's no ink bleed-through on the reverse-side of the sheet of paper as would be expected from hand written signatures.

The paper that the art is printed on is better quality than the paper that the letter is copied on. It's a heavier stock paper, though it's not too firm. Plus I think the surface of the paper has an almost silky feel to it. I may be wrong about that bit though. I don't have any spare prints available now to test. My one and only print is now framed and inaccessible for testing.

When they started sending out those apology letters, around July/August, for the late hoodies the first wave were printed on a navy blue hard stock paper.

Would weighing it prove authenticity?

Is there a difference in paper quality between the letter and the print itself? If the answer is no, then it's probably a fake. Like I said before, the paper quality on the print is better than the paper quality on the letter. The art is printed on lightweight cardstock paper. It's firm/sturdy paper, but not too sturdy, if you get my meaning.

If the letter is paper and the print is a thicker card stock then I would assume it is real.
