It looks original, and not stamped, from the one picture posted.
Perhaps the square shows up because it was matted with a picture at one time. Uneven light exposure could have caused the part of the paper visible to fade to a slightly different color shade, while the hidden part appears as the page originally did. Additionally, the orange area is a very exact, probably measured rectangle, which is how any framer would have matted that signature.
