The "e" in Lew is consistent with Tesreau's e's (and certainly not with 'Nuf Ced McGreevey's above). The flow is also mindful of Tesreau's penmanship. The "L" in Lew has that loopy look to it (kinda like Gehrig's L). Jew Stick? I don't think so. Maybe Big Jeff was a bad speller. This thread should be copied to the autograph side so the experts can have a look.
Nice suggestion about the autograph section. Consider it done! Thanks David, hope all is well your way...
