Isn't this too good to be a secretarial? I agree that the signature looks very atypical in places but the inscription seems pretty convincing and I cann0t see a secretary bothering to write one like that.

I think its secretarial as well as I was lookin at it for ages before the auction.  It sold imo for a very low price for a vintage paul sig, despite the condition.

Good catch with the OP. There is hesitation an the start of upstrokes after the down on several letters after the "a". Pause, pressure and direction change.

Not the first time I've seen this secretarial signature. You would think there would be enough exemplars to make an easy determination by now.
