I want to see YOUR autograph

That's style.

Thanks,

Growing up with Harmon Killebrew as one of our local legends, we constantly heard stories about him scolding players for having crappy autographs. Look at Torii Hunter or Michael Cuddyer early vs. late signatures and you will see that some of them really took his word to heart. Obviously Harmon had room to talk with probably the best looking autograph around (in my opinion).

Now I know its different because no one wants or seeks my autograph, but my signature ends up on a lot of stuff for work, so I thought I would take Harmon's advice and class it up.

Here it is. It has been the same for at least 30 years. In public school it was pretty straight cursive. For all the forgers - I never dot the 'i' and I will only sign my name in blue. I give fits to the security at some of the federal buildings I go into as they try to make you sign in black and I refuse. I tell them I deal with legal documents and you can always tell a real signature if it is in blue.

I don't deal with legal documents but I use a blue pen both in my autograph seeking and in my real life for the same reason.

Scott, I like how you cross your "tt" with the second S. Nice!

Ha - thanks Jarrod! I wasted a lot of time years ago getting that to work that way!

But think of how much time you've saved ever since, not having to go back and make that extra stroke to cross the t's! I'm sure it's more than evened out

I couldn't help but share on this thread. Unlike Gary, I ALWAYS
sign with a pen, in black.

I've always been intrigued with signatures. Wheneven I get the
chance to view others' signatures, I make it a point to study it
and analyze it. I once had my signature critiqued by a graphologist.
Somewhere around here I have his analysis results, which are pretty
much spot on in terms of my personality traits.

I have a couple of signatures. This is the one I planned to pander after achieving baseball greatness. Unfortunately, a 47 mph fastball doesn't take you very far.
