Hi Garrett -  I believe this is authentic....and quite nice!  It's great to see a real one as he was as big a star as could be imagined in his day and secretarials abound.

That's what my late mother told me, that Jolson was the first Broadway-crossovers to the movies who was a superstar.  Thanks for the authentication.

I have encountered quite a few authentic Jolson autographs in my day and this looks good. Unfortunately, time hasn’t been kind to him and his autograph value is not on par with other giants of the early 20th century.

I'm afraid the politically-correct juggernaut has rolled over Jolson, relegating him to the obscurity.
