Good morning,  I have been collecting cinema photos for years and sometimes autographed photos. 
Today I have the opportunity to buy a photo of Marilyn but have doubts about her signature.

Thanks in advance

Most signatures on German UFA cards from this 50s/60s era are secretarial like this Monroe that you are looking at.  Most originated from the Filmstar-Sekretariat Hans Dangers service in Berlin and distributed widely by them in the European market.  Definitely not personally signed by MM.
