George H.W. Bush TTM. Thoughts?

I sent this a letter and this photo out to George H. W. Bush back on April 22nd, and received it back this morning, July 13th (it didn't have the little water spots when I sent it off). The inscription looks secretarial to me, thoughts on the signature?

That's his "late age" autopen example.  They used to use a nice strong one... then somebody must have decided to make a new plate up that better represented what his current graph looks like.

I don't think any former President signs through the mail.  All autopen.

I wonder if Bush is reading over a memo from his masters

I kind of figured it was an autopen, I just wasn't able to find any other current examples. The dots from the pen are fairly visible in a couple of places, and the lines look like they have a slight squiggle to them from vibration. Carl, love the comment about his masters!
