Is this an authentic Dwight D. Eisenhower, a secretarial, or an autopen?

Good evening. This is my first time posting although I have been using this site as somewhat of a reference for a while now. I would like to get the opinions of the members as to whether this is Ike's signature or not. I intend to send it in to an authentication service but would like to get your learned opinions before I spend the money. Also, if you have any suggestions as to which authentication service would be best for this, I would like to know them. Any information that you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

This looks like Ike's signature. If I remember right, I think JFK was the first President to use the autopen in office. I'm not 100% sure on this though. I'd have to do a little research. If you're going to send it off, I would probably go with PSA/DNA...or JSA.

I've thought about adding an Ike myself, being that he is the only Kansan to become President. And he was a good one too. Yes, he was born in Texas, but moved to Kansas when he was two, and is buried in Abilene, Kansas, his boyhood home. If you can't tell I'm from Kansas. This was back when America had a run of four great Presidents, FDR, Truman, IKE, and JFK.
Eisenhower had a few autopen patterns, used post-Presidency. This signature looks good, but hard to tell if it's pre-printed or not...he usually connected the t of his last name to the D and E of his middle and last names.
