Default Denton Cy Young

Does anyone know how often Cy Young signed as Denton T Young? The reason I'm asking as I've seen at least a couple of items signed this way on Ebay lately and wondered how common this form of his autograph is.

The Denton T. Young signature is very rare and highly sought after by HoF collectors . He used this signature during his playing career and the Cy Young became his primary signature after his career ended until his death . As very few post career legal documents have made it market , including checks ,I don’t think there is a valid consensus on how often he used his given name later in life when signing any item legal or not .

To me that looks like an address cut from an envelope mailed TO him, rather than written by him.

This is one of the other ones I found on Ebay. Both this one and the one at top were both authenticated by PSA, and both are way out of my price range.
