The illegible signature on the cover is the Postmaster (P.M.) of Cooperstown, N.Y. in 1939. It was common to have the local postmaster sign first day covers (FDC's) during the First Day ceremonies held in their town. This was especially true in the 1940's and 1950's. If you do a search for autographs in the U.S. Stamps listings on ebay you will see many older covers signed by postmasters.
