Verification of Signature

Suhas (Querist) 12 October 2009 This query is : Resolved
This query is with regard to the verification of a signature on a document.

As far as I know, the following are the methods to proving the signature on any document:
1)By stating that I am the person who signed the document, or
2)By being a witness to the signing of the document
3)By calling in a handwriting expert to verify the signature.

My question however, is as follows:
Would it be acceptable by the courts of law if I state that the signature is by the person claimed, if it is identical to any other signature by the same person on other documents that I might have?

Would this be regarded as adequate proof under Sec 67 of the Indian Evidence Act?

If I possess other documents of the same person bearing the same signature, would that be enough to prove a signature under Sec 67?

Thanks
