Ive seen a lot of Simmons autographs on reputable auctions, and in person at shows over the years, and that looks like it does have characteristics, and I think the nail idea is a good theory, tho the etching as well could be too. GREAT thread, and great item, regardless.

Scraping it into the metal with a nail can be called hand engraving or hand engraved. Hand engraved signature.
I'm no autograph expert, but, if this was Simmon's personal pass, odds are he wrote it. No one's signed my name to my credit card or museum pass but me. I bet Donald Trump, with all his millions and constant celebrity appearances, personally signs the back of all his credit cards. I bet Audrey Hepburn signed her library card if it required a signature. Circumstances don't prove, but support that it would have been Al who scraped in the name.
