This vintage example preprint is good to show the card, but other examples do a much better job looking truly handsigned - especially his formal CBS portrait. Looks just like fountain. Seems Jackie wasn't only one not answering his mail. Those vintage cards can be really tough to distinguish.

True, in his later life, he signed a lot TTM,as Trixie apparently still does. While it is sometime said "you'll never see a forged Carney", I have seen many (this is course is not one of them, and they aren't all obvious stamps with bubbles either).

This is actually a very important bit of information.  I have all the Carney autographs I need so suppose I have not paid much attention in quite a while.  I suppose in the heyday of CBS and The Honeymooners the requests were pouring in.  I wonder if there were like autographs of Audrey Meadows and Jane Randolph from the same time? 

Thanks Scott. I have never seen preprinted Meadows or Randolph. They even wrote out the backs of their own pc's to look like they had secretaries -fountain on Obv. and ballpoint on Rev.

I have never seen any of them either. I suspect that Gleason and Carney got the lion share of the requests sent to CBS or their agents.  Joyce Randolph is a lovely lady and very generous to her fans.  Audrey was also and Carney, later on, was very generous.

The fan mail Alice and Trix got often consisted of new drapes and nicer aprons. I think we spoke about meeting and talking with Joyce Randolph, no?

Must have been someone else on here.  I never met Miss Randolph but she wrote me a nice note at the bottom of a letter wrote to her.  I never knew why they didn't use her in the Honeymooner movies she was even a year younger than Jane Kean. Both very fine actresses.
