Re: [F_minor] GG Signature: Is This Autograph Legit?

["Matthew Harding" <matthew.harding@ktlgroup.ca>]

Hello Anne... keep in mind that Glenn's signature, like his opinions of Mozart, varied 
depending on the phases of the moon and how he was feeling on any particular day.

I have authenticated autographs of his Gouldness with one "n", two "n"s, and a sort of 
squiggle that looks like an elongated snake, that could be about 4 "n"s. I don't think 
there is any canonical autograph.

Having said that, this particular autograph does seem a trifle askew... I would need to 
know more details (was it mailed out to someone? taken from a Christmas card? written at 
a concert?). 1960 was in the middle of Glenn's concertizing years, and I've noticed his 
signatures seem to oscillate widely whenever he was on a concert tour. And Bill could be 
any number of well known Bills, or an admirer...

Respectfully,
Matthew
