Harry agganis signed post card real or preprint?
 
2 Attachment(s)
Just curious thoughts on this piece. I believe it is a JD Mccarthy postcard. I have seen them with pre-printed autos, but this looks to be live ink. There is a horrible JSA copy on ebay, that has an auto AND preprinted signature, it looks like it was drawn by a 4 year old. Also, this has a postmark from Lynn, MA Harry's hometown in dec 1954 months before his passing. Any thoughts appreciated. I have seen some versions of his auto which look quite a bit different.


Help appreciated

It's really hard to tell with these postcards. Some have preprinted autographs, some have real autographs and some don't seem to have either one. I've seen some sent from players where they don't sign them and even one's where the players inscribe it to the recipient above the preprint and don't actually sign them. Your's looks like a preprint but it's hard to tell.

Thanks Ed, there looks to be some chipping where the photo paper was chipped while he was signing. Unless it was peeling from the pre-print. Seems live, but too good to be true....you know the saying.

Thanks for the help

here is the ridiculous one from Ebay

That looks traced (and not well). Wonder why it was certified.

Glenn Hall seemed to do that a lot with the Black Hawks. He would sign the persons name above the preprinted signature. But it always looked like a team secretary did that signing.
