Katharine Hepburn signed index card - real or fake?

You have to be careful with Hepburn as her signature became shaky within the years, but nevertheless I'm no fan of this. Doesn't seem intuitively written and hast what Eric might call"the Look": No context, perfectly centered and with exact bottom line.

And by the way: Would she really misspell her own name as "Ketherine"?? On the other hand: A forger wouldn't dream to get away with that and would have thrown that piece in the garbage, right?

It looks odd to me...I'd pass on it.

This is a photocopy of the signed item. I deal with an elderly gentleman who does not use a computer. He has collected since his childhood. He photocopies the autographs I am interested in and sends me the copies through the mail ( he is old school). This way I can do my own research and study before buying.
