Just curious.

You are correct...not as fluid and flowing as in the past. And without adding "12". Not sure why, as it wasn't rushed. Perhaps a HOF election and the corresponding onslaught of sig requests made him adjust?

It is a nice autograph but I guess it is another example of the deteriorating signature of the American athlete.
It was never like this in my opinion until the late 1990s early 2000s.
