Koufax Secretarial??

[rand1com]

I am not a Koufax expert but most of his TTM autographs were secretarial although good looking ones. I think this one is indeed secretarial and if so the value is minimal. The card would be worth more without a secretarial signature.

I don't like the "S" very much. Here is a real example . . .

The y and the K would make it period signed if it was real. He stopped the loop in the K pretty early

The style of the signature resembles the way he was signing around 1965, but I do believe it is secretarial. The letters may have a similar style, but the slant is almost never quite correct with the secretarial versions as well as with the forgeries, and some letters are difficult to get the flow correct for them as well. There can always be exceptions, but I don't think this authentic.

Thanks, I was fairly certain JSA was correct, just wanted a few more eyes on it, before I moved it.

I believe it is good. Just my opinion.

Thanks! may I ask why? I thought given the provenance of the collection it was probably good but deferred to JSA, maybe I give PSA/DNA a shot?
