Johnny Cash - real, fake or preprint?

Hi! Would appreciate your help on this Johnny Cash! Is it a genuine signature, a preprint or a fake?

Thank you for helping!

That looks good, a great natural signature.

Thank you! Agree, but wasn’t sure if it was a printed signature that he maybe sent out TTM or a genuine signed one.

I think I’ve seen this kind of picture signed before and was worried it was something they sent out to fans writing to him.

Well, that's easy enough to determine - but my reference (to this signature) was if it was signed in ink. If it's a pre-print or facsimile, then we know it's fan club and not genuine.

I just thought if someone maybe knew if this was a common TTM preprint or not.

The problem is that it’s for sale at a large auction house so I can’t see it myself. And they do not specialize on autographs, so I can’t trust their word either.

Once again, thank you for your help!
