    I’m not a handwriting expert , but isn’t it interesting that Errol and Livie have a very close signature flare??!! Or is it my imagination?

      I am no expert but I also think there is some doubt, Errol did not sign like that in my humble opinion! Unless he was in a hurry!

        Welcome back, Don Jan!

        There certainly appears to be variations through the years, but the ‘y’ is similar in this 1950s autograph.

        And here’s one he signed on Coronado in the late 30s:

        P.S. Don Jan. Are you going to watch Don Juan on the 12th with the Errol Flynn/Adventures of Don Juan Spanish Red Wine Tina posted up yesterday?

      I think you’re write, timerider. Very similar Flynnmanship.
