Call me crazy, but I'm almost 100% sure this is real. I know she sometimes signs autopen, but I've gone through just about every sarah palin post on this website and looked at her known autopen signatures and not one of them are the exact same signature as I got. It's also dedicated to me, as requested, which leads me to further believe it's real. Plus after spending a few minutes searching the internet, it appears Sarah was home in Alaska on the day it was postmarked. So what do you think?

Sam, what makes you doubt the authenticity on these? Only thing i could think of would be sec's, but I've never heard anyone talk about her having a sec sign

Perhaps some of what each of you is saying could be true. You may find that many situations are not "either one or the other."
In my mind, a plausible explanation is that Ms. Palin signs large numbers of pictures ahead of time at her convenience. These can usually be sent out later with relative ease, except for the occasional personalization requests, which can then be done by secretaries.
I'm pretty sure that most celebrities can't do a lot of personalizing themselves without making the turnaround time excessively long. Having a quick turnaround on a real autograph personalized by a secretary would seem to be the best of both worlds.

They are secretarial. She sends out both Autopens and Secretarial signatures. These are secretarial. The H and the P standout as being horrible, and you can tell whomever is signing them has trouble forming her H-P. Here is one of my full signature photos that I have obtained In-Person from her:

I sent her 2 postcards back when she was still governor. I am 100% sure they are not autopen and they match pretty close to her in-person's I have seen including the one in this thread. The only thing about comparing to in-person's is that they are often rushed and signed on the run rather than at a desk or table. I am pretty sure I have 2 authentic signatures.
