Barbra Streisand - late 80 - 90's legit?

Got this one in a trade in late 90's forgot about until her book tour. Finally dug it out. Thoughts? Appreciate any opinions. TIA.

Thank you Steve, guess this goes into the "FAKE" file along with too many others. :(

These First Day Covers are an absolute minefield (although why you thought Babs would sign an FDC related to scientists back in the day is probably pertinent).

I have never actually bought one and probably never will but I have seen one thousand that I wanted to pull the trigger on. There is no information source (that I know of) which reliably identifies which covers have been hand-signed by the subject(s) and it is usually very difficult to assess online whether the signatures are printed or not. I have most recently almost been caught out by the Monty Python one in the UK (printed, with different coloured inks used) .

Best avoided, I feel, unless you are an experienced philatelist as well.
