I have searched for other examples of this early Richard Nixon card that appears to be signed. Or is it a facsimile? I have searched for hours to see if this message has been written or stamped before.
I could not find any others like it.

Under magnification it appears there is overlapping of ink plus there are pressure points.

Please let me know!!

I would think the Nixon is auto-pen. I do have experience with Nixon signatures.

This does not appear to be an authentically signed Nixon item.

Nixon was very quirky - even to the point where I have a letter from Nixon, as President, sent to his Vice-President, Spiro T. Agnew, with an autopen signature.

It's safe to say that items signed "D Nixon" or "Dick Nixon" are autopens. That said, you can tell this is an autopen due to the even pressure of the ink. It's generally difficult for a human (unless intentionally doing it) to apply pressure as consistent as that shown.
