It is not the same signature as the normal ones received ttm.
The secretarial is not only neater but more elaborate.
Now the one you posted is a little neater than his messier signatures BUT it is the same signature as all the IP, private signing, book signing signatures. BUT, it is not the same as the secretarial. It isn't.
I think you actually hurt your case by posting a signature where he is in the photo with the item signed because it is not the same as the ttm secs. I can't stress that enough.
People need to refer especially to the private signing signatures. Not only are the same handwriting, though a little messier than the one you posted, but they are completely (and really the one you posted too) nothing like the ttm secretarials.
Now I don't know if you have any of his autographs in your collection and that makes you interested in trying to get someone saying "ttm are real" but at some point you need to face facts:
the most experienced collectors know Dick doesn't sign ttm, the book signing, private signing and even the few in person signatures do not match the ttm no matter where Dick is signing, whether it's at a desk or standing up on the street they do not match.
the private signing was done primarily to give fans a chance to get REAL autographs because they know Dick does not sign ttm for real. They didn't do it to make him "millions" or for them to make "millions" they did it because they want Dick's real autograph to get into the hands of fans/collectors and even dealers selling the secretarials.

Again, not trying to be harsh. I'm just trying to empart my years of collecting experience, which surely has resulted in both successs and dissapointments (getting secretarial signatures like Dick Van Dyke's is a dissapointment!).
