Here are some examples which I received directly from Ms. Lee over a 12-15 year period. There are variations in her "H" and the spacing of other letters in almost all four examples. I, for one, think the OPs example is fine. I have also included an image of a signed Shooting Call for the first day of filming of the movie which includes her full name.

Back in the early/mid-90's I wanted to get a photograph signed but it was pre-internet and I didn't have a source for a photo. I happened to see a small magazine article on Ms. Lee that featured an early photo credited to WorldWide Photos. Somehow I contacted them to inquire about obtaining a photograph. The response was that an 8" X 10" photo would cost $50. I ordered the pic and sernt it out to Ms. Lee with my request for her to sign. In my letter I explained where I had obtained the photograph and what the cost of the picture was. When the photo came back I was pleasantly surprised to find that not only had she signed the photograph, she also included a note which said "Mr. Peters--You was robbed! HL"

Incredible! One of these days I will add a Mockingbird signed book to my collection. I'm a middle school librarian and this book has always been my favorite. Thanks for sharing your personal experience. I am green with envy.
