I am in need of some expert eyes!

I found this nice print of Alan Shepard's golf shot in a used furniture store. Bought it for my daughter last weekend. It appears to have been signed by Shepard but I am certainly no authority on signatures!

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Looks fine to me!

On edit, maybe I should not have commented since I would not really consider myself an "expert" ...

If you look at it through a magnifying glass you see, whether is is hand-written or printed.

Thanks for the replies. I couldn't find much information about the print. It is also signed and numbered by the artist in what looks like gold sharpie; Robert Goetzl.

This print was languishing away on a shelf in a foreclosure furniture store. My daughter was glad we rescued it.
