Marlene Dietrich signed Ross Verlag postcard – Beckett “Unlikely” – Opinions welcome

Hello everyone,

I recently acquired a Ross Verlag postcard (No. 759) of Marlene Dietrich with a German inscription that reads:

“Für Lili – liebe Grüße – Ihre Marlene Dietrich”

I submitted it to Beckett for a Quick Opinion and received an “Unlikely to Pass Full Authentication” result.

Before forming a final opinion, I would genuinely appreciate technical feedback from experienced collectors here.

Observations:

• Period Ross Verlag postcard (No. 759) • Ink does not fluoresce under UV • Natural flow and line variation visible
• No obvious hesitation or drawn lines

I am fully open to critical and honest opinions.

Thank you in advance for your time and expertise.

The one observation you didn't provide was how your item compares to other examples of her signature.  I don't know her signature but I took a quick look at a dozen or so online and they didn't seem to resemble yours at all. 

Did you find others that compared favorably?
