I was told by a friend of mine that the signature looked good to him and with the letter K being not attached was his way of signing much later in his days. Here is my book:

Any thoughts are much appreciated! |
Rick, below is a statement taken from your Ebay item description and it reads:
Compare the autograph with the reproduction of the man's signature on the back of the dust jacket. It's the real McCoy, for sure!
I can't count the number of forgeries I've observed where the forger tried to emulate the reproduction signature on the item they are forging. You cannot judge an autograph in that manner.
And above you wrote
"I don't know anything about autographs." If you admit you don't know autographs, then how can you write in your item description
"It's the real McCoy for sure!"
