Well back in the fifties she was probably nice to her fans and signed ttm. Today she uses secretaries. She most likely didn't want to have to deal with fanmail anymore since she isn't a spring chicken anymore, so she'd rather someone sign for her. :( I'd love to drive up there to her house in northern california with a friend who has met her before like twenty years ago (I know this person really) and see if I can get an authentic one in person. Has she even signed at all in person in years?

here we go again...

Awesome thread!

What is funny is that the lines are not above the Ds as everyone says is her authentic signature. I have just looked at my signed records from here and I do say that they are infact real! Cool video!

this video was 60 years ago so i'm sure its different.

i still believe her to send secs but most celebs have different forms of signatures and i'm sure being on TV and all she wanted it to look perfect

It's signed very differently on the show than it is TTM. I don't think they're the real deal. :(

I still say they aren't authentic Doris Day's through the mail. I would kill for her autograph!!! Grrrrr! :p

I always like watching that part of that show. It's fun to see how celebrities sign autographs. One of my favorites is the Julie Andrews one.
And as I already knew, the D in her real signature is formed very differently then the D in her ttm signature.

its still hard to compare because according to isitreal the signatures are almost identical to the real ones... (secs to real). they are very very close and unless its seen it would be hard to tell the difference.

now i know there is a lot of questioning about isitreal and whatnot but it does offer a lot of information.

i cannot see the video at work, but i will be interested to see it when i get home.

Thought you could compare it to her TTMs.

Thanks to ryco for showing it to me! ;-)
