Ansel Adams signed postcard - opinions please

Please share opinions regarding the Ansel Adams signature of interest on the postcard in the image below. I have also included an image of two postcards from the RR Auction archive for comparison. To my eyes, the signature on the single postcard is pretty close to the signature on the top postcard from RR Auction. However, my record of authenticating has not been too good as of late so appreciate feedback and comments from members with more knowledge and experience. Thank you as always.

I think the Adams is correct too.

I have a few items signed by him and they look good for comparison.

Thank you, Richard. I always appreciate you taking a look and I value your opinion.

I felt pretty good about this signature but the "A" in "Ansel" varies slightly among likely authentic examples I could find. This one seemed a bit narrower and pointed. However, the rest of his signature looked consistent including signing at a similar angle. It feels good to hear your feedback. Thank you.
