Yea, that makes sense that it's stamped. It doesn't flow like a hand-written one. I'm still new to recognizing real/manufactured autos. These were mailed to the collector as a reply to his auto request so I just assumed it was signed.

It is definitely one piece though; not a photo adhered to anything. You can see the side and bottom edges that stick out farthest look torn, not clean cut like the rest. It makes me feel like there were a bunch of these together with some sort of perforation. The stock is definitely a nice photo paper. On the back of the other one I have, you can make out the faint "Kodak Velox Paper". I think that's old tape on there too?



I do know the image, of course. Actually, in the background of the photos I posted you can see one of the postcards with the same image. That one was actually from the Jackie Robinson clothing store, though; not the regular JJK Copy Art. I'll post images in a bit. It's a pretty cool piece too.
