These days, signatures are becoming less and less legible. Speaking for myself, mine is still legible ONLY if I take my time and I'm writing on a 'low-tech' surface aka paper, cardboard, etc. These check-out machines have become the bane of my existence.
As far as collecting signatures, I only have experience collecting Baseball players' signatures, mostly on cards. Of active players, there are a lot that look quite similar to my check-out samples. Many Old-Timers had very 'neat' legible signatures, though some have aged just as the players themselves have. My personal favorite was fashioned by, appropriately enough, 'The Mechanical Man' Charlie Gehringer. Let's see your favorite! 1935 DIAMOND STARS w GEHRINGER AUTO.jpg

My favorite sig, also happens to me my all time fav player, is Harmon Killibrew. Rarely do I see his autograph that doesn`t look like he took time and made the effort to please the recipient. Maybe 4 or so years ago a fellow 54`er had a sheet with what looked like Harmon actually practicing his sig, had to be at least 12+ examples on the page. Still regret not purchasing it.
