It's not printed on the paper, it's signed by a pen. Please don't insult my intelligence:)

haha.... Sorry Selma... didn`t mean to insult your intelligence! :))) (Just know that many of the promocards sent out from the fanclub were autopen signed cards..with first name only.. The Beatles very rarely signed by only their first names... ) you can read more about it from the top here: http://www.beatlesautographs.com/promotional_cards.htm

Anyway I`m sure there is many others on this forum who knows more about this, so I`m sure they will help you soon:) Good luck

Hello Selma

What you have there is a fan club postcard.  These were letterpress stamped thus leaving an indent in the photo to look like pen pressure.  These were mass produced by the 1000's in the 60's.  Hope that helps

Hmm.. It really looks like it has been written by hand, but I'm not an expert and this is only a scanned picture of the autograph. Thanks for your insight.
