Doris Day Signed Photograph - Opinions on Unusual Letter D's

What do you think of this autograph?  Looks like Doris Day's writing, except for the D's that are different from what I have seen before.  Also, I don't see this photograph anywhere online.  Thoughts on this?  I found it in an old case in a barn.

Beginning of her career to the present, signed checks, letters, documents, or just 8X10s.  I don't recall ever seeing her handwriting like this. Secretarial?

That might be a bad thing! A duplicate inscription, when it doesn't appear that she was in the habit of signing that particular inscription? Differences in the formation as well, the architecture of the writing. I'm still skeptical. Like the MM letter to "Carlton", this could be the exemplar one was copied from, or vice versa. Unusual inscription, unusual signature for her at a time when she was signing checks one way and this another.
