Looks like a Harry Grabiner "secretarial" signature to me, but I dont have my files with me right now to double check.

Genuine Comiskeys that I have seen all have the "bulls-eye" looking "C" like this one:

According the the exemplars in Ron Keurajian's new book that one is indeed a secretarial

I have a Commy signed item for sale in the BST with the bullseye "C".

Here's the signature from the limited edition book of Commy.

Harry Grabiner used to sign for him a lot and I am sure that is who is "author" of that one.

Also, not ALL real Comiskeys have the "bullseye" as he sometimes signed with the first "C" similar to the last one, but that is when his signatures were late in life.
