Default Joe Louis Autograph help

you should be able to find other Lewis signatures to compare with these; in general his signature is usually never as clean so I would not be surprised if they are part of the book. I would see what the age of the book is and go from there as well, little research will help.

I haven't heard of faux/pre-printed Louis signatures for that book, so that shouldn't be the issue. Yours clearly is not a stamp, as you can see overlapping of ink. I'm not aware that Louis used an autopen or such. It should just come down to if the signature is genuine.

Default Bauman Rare Books Catalogue October 2009

Hi Rick,

I found this listing in the above referenced catalogue... Sounds like yours could be legit if it fits the description given ie: date, first edition, etc.

Hope this helps!

Beautiful. That's three from the same book with three distinct but similar signatures, so I'm declaring victory. Thanks to all of you for your expertise!

Rick

Consistency is what you what to see, so that is very good news

Four. I had a hand signed copy from the estate of his trainer (Mannie Seamon).

Hi,

I also have the same book with a tipped in signature that I bought from a reputable dealer. I believe them to be legit.
