It just looks like the many 'neat' secretarials that are out there.  Do you know when it was signed?  Perhaps a vintage Newman signature from the 60's or 70's may look like this.  In that case, we would need someone familiar with that time span.  Even Mr Newman's signed Easton Press licensed books have a sort of 'scrunched' look to them.

Both of the  Newman Signatures you posted are authentic in my opinion.

Nice find......

Bob ,
I thought the P and N were dead on with 1960 examplars . I figured this one was signed around 61-62 . Good to see you think its authentic , as at first glance I was thinking it was .
