This is an interesting one. Most of the time Robert tied his first and last name together. Always exceptions though. I would say it's got a decent chance of being authentic. What a TPA might decide is another thing. Here is a similar example to yours(pre-certed by Beckett).

Joe W. If I were to sell this Shaw, I would never sell this without a TPA, Shaw is a tough one.  This came out of a collection sold by the decedents of a professional photographer…..Back in the day the photographer sold to "Time" ,"Life" etc. When he took the photo, part of his fee was for the subject to sign a 3x5 card. I think I have posted others from this collection with the same format….It is always about the ink. Thanks for taking a look.

Yes, I believe I know the source this comes from. If it's the one I'm thinking about I've bought from this source as well. One of your Eastwood's came from that source as well, correct? Honestly, every signature from that source is authentic, IMO. At least, every one I've seen.

I think it's likely authentic.

I'm blessed with a good memory. :) I missed more than I bought. Super nice collection.

I've had this photo for a few years now. When I look at it I can hear his fingernails scrapping against the chalkboard.
