I'm not an expert on TR, although I do own one.

This signature might be from his son.

It could be an early TR but mine and others I looked up on the Internet just now have very different formulations of the "T" in the first name and "R" and "t" in the last name. 

I did find one from 1889 and it was slightlly more like yours.

I also looked up TR Jr's signature and it doesn't really  look like his, either. 

You asked for opinions and I gave you mine.  You can disregard as you see fit.

Odd signature on a cut, centered with large margins and no damage with perfect corners defying age. Immediately suspect until proven otherwise.
