Kraftwerk signed postcard

Hi guys. I have an authentic autograph/ postcard from the legandary group Kraftwerk. Signed by the two founding members Ralf Hütter, Florian Schneider (dead sign) and early members Karl Bartos and Wolfgang Flür. I know it is authentic and my father told me (he was the once collecjng) that there were just a few hundreds of those available direct from the Kling Klang Studio Düsseldorf end 70s, early 80s. Can someone here confirm the story and help me to get help for an coa, also as I consider to sell this beauty? Bearing in mind that I live in Düsseldorf, Germany. Thanks

The "l's" in the 1979 postcard and the Brandes example appear more alike IMO. I wonder how these would look with the RecordMecca example.

The "Fs" in the 1979 postcard and the my example appear more alike IMO. So it’s hard to tell

Here is your postcard, the 1981 RecordMecca and the Markus Brandes. You are saying the first example below, yours, looks more like which? If the last two are indeed genuine yours appears odd man out IMO. Looking at the "l's" in the red 1979 postcard and yours I still think the other two "l's" are a better match to the red exemplar than yours from this extremely limited number of images.

These are all authentic, many years between them.

Thank you. They are said to be from the 70's/80's (OP), 1981 (RecordMecca) and the red PC from 1979. The Brandes doesn't have a date IIRC. When do you think the OP was signed?

Thanks for confirming. So my postcard is authentic ?

Yes, these are early 70s, while the others are 10 years later, Florian with the rounded F is from 1982 or 84

Hi MG, is this autograph/ postcard authentic? My father collected this directly from Kling Klang Studio. My  Dad passed away 25 years ago and told me that there were just a few hundreds given away from Kling Klang Studio. Late 70s I think. You see the Kling Klang sign in the Corner

MG, do you have any advice on getting an COA for this? Bear in mind that I Live in Germany. I want to sell this one, as I think it would mean more to others.
