Does anyone know franks or Nixon’s signature?

It appears his signature style and form but perhaps not from this date; it does not particularly look like live ink. It's generic "inscription" of "Hi" when he often dedicated, the overall legibility for the date, perhaps the ink color, and the apparent (small scan) lack of normal ink crossover and trail off/speed suggests a facsimile of some kind to me. It could be something else. I can't read the surfaces properly from this scan.

One might guess the Nixon is also a facsimile. I did not look.

PS - The Sinatra is obviously not a secretarial.

With what is shown, I have to go with facsimile.

As always I appreciate the time and the opinion

I personally do not like this Sinatra. It appears to be a decent forgery, imo. Has the basics but lacks certain elements I look for. This may or may not help you but there's a link to a good signature study.

Great link Joe! I appreciate that so much

You are welcome.

Hi Rob, Joe, that's a good resource (is it by Bill White?); the UACC study found online has an example or two from the 1980's, maybe some others from the 70's too, which is very helpful in this context. They also have Garland, Bud and Lou, Bruce Lee etc.

Yes, Bill White. It's one RR Auction's site.

Thank you Eric and Joe for the info it’s greatly appreciated that you both took the time to not just look at my post but provide additional information on to better educate myself!
