Dear Members,

I saw these two bottles for sale. Are they Yong Shoutian? One appears signed, but both have his typical battle scene decoration.

Hi Brian, yes they are. I saw both of these on ebay, but I'm pretty sure the first one has the second signature.
Also looking closely at the pictures on ebay, the first bottle appears to have a crack at the neck - otherwise I would be bidding on it.

The second bottle looks like it might have the first signature.

Very interesting information about that on this thread:

The 2nd bottle has better painting, but the colour has faded so much that it's probably not worth keeping... The 1st bottle is a "student" type Yong Shou Tian..... IMP, the painting is not good
