Roy
From an Oct 1989 signing in Los Angeles. I had always heard that Roy had to use a machine to help him autograph after his accident, and that there was great debate if that was a legit autograph or "autopen". I'm not sure if that was really the case early on but I'm here to tell you that the device used when signing this was a brace not a machine. Roy was then able to move his fingers while the heal of his hand stayed in place without shaking. This is why the Roy always looks pretty good but the Campanella starts to look a little gabled as he stretches the reach of his fingers. Also glad I got this on a 16x20.
