What do yall think? I bought this from a local dealer before I joined here. It looked o.k. compared to others that I found. How did I do?

I'm by no means an expert on Baker, but just from the appearance of the scan it looks almost like a stamp. Not saying it is, but it has that look to it.

It definitely is not stamped as you can see the overlaps in the ink, however I do not think it is authentic either. Stamped signatures will have more of a "squished out" ink look from when it is pressed down. This one doesn't have any flow to it like an authentic example should.

I noticed many of the examples are signatures cut from checks. Was this done by the family or by a dealer?
... checks cut up. ![]()

My understanding (maybe just lore) is that his wife would honor collector's requests after his passing by cutting a signature off of a check.

I believe that is the correct story.
