Is this JFK real?

Hi, I was hoping for opinions on this JFK signature from 1960. It is on a campaign brochure. Seller claims to have obtained the signature in 1960 when he was a child. Thanks in advance for all replies.

Thank you, James. I'm always learning. I had never seen a similar JFK in-person signature signed this way. Thanks for showing me the one in Nate's auction. My opinion has changed. Allen, I am now of the opinion that your JFK is most probably authentic.

Hey, no problem, Herman. I'm always learning too. With JFK having had so many different styles, it's easy to miss one. Like I said before, I still have to refer to exemplars. On some I know quickly, while on others I'm scratching my head in uncertainty. It's sounds like you are quite good with presidential items. If I eventually acquire an Eisenhower, Truman, or Roosevelt, I will be calling on you for help.

Check this one out. A JFK signed program (using yet another one of his styles)was sold on May 30th for $2400 by PressPass. It is in fact authentic. I know it shows $2499, but the Best Offer was accepted for $2400.
