Just my opinion. Don't like this one.

Here is a good signature study on Sinatra.

I agree with Joe on this one, the first name in the signature is not consistent with him.  Looks like it has been slowly hand written and not signed fluently.

This one has characteristics of being Sinatra's mid 1940's signature. Although I'm not fully convinced. There's something that backs me off. The angle is unusual. Seems like a strange photo for him to sign although I get the Goodman association. This needs to be viewed up close. Is it an ink signature?

I agree with Joe on this one too.  At first glance, the signature looks like it has a chance of being authentic but something just looks off to me.  I don't think it is authentic.

I agree with Joe and Eric.  This is definitely NOT Frank's signature!

This one does not look like authentic to me.  However, since the inscription suggests that the recipient, "Dom," was known to Frank, I wouldn't be surprised if the signature was secretarial.  From what I've seen over the years, even some of Frank's friends and acquaintances ended up with secretarial signatures.

Please don't edit images out of the discussion - it is impossible to know now who is talking about which because you took one away.

With the images gone, this thread has become completely unintelligible!

I can't opine on the Martin, Lewis, or Davis Jr. Haven't studied them. On the scrapbook Sinatra, it's a bit different and not sure what to think on it. Could be, can't say one way or the other.
