Not as convinced on this one. I really like to see that exaggerated "e" in Newman.

Joe W. , take the "e " out of the autograph and what do you see ?

Seems almost a transitional between his earlier versus later graphs. I know it's not a secretarial so. I also look for a slightly tilted left "L". It's got his oblong "P".  I assume hastily signed. There is enough positives for me to say it's likely authentic. If I was an authenticator(thank God I'm not!) I would give it a passing grade.

I guy who knew authentication once told me he went by the three strike rule. The OP does not have three strikes. IMHO.

Joe W.,Thanks for the second look, Newman changed over the years……It is alaways about the ink.
