Looks a bit rushed but not that different from a similar inscribed event signature card (President's Club 2000) I purchased years ago.

"To David" was hand-written but Lovell's signature was pre-printed on the litho card. An early lesson that fortunately cost me very little.

In any case, I'd give it an amateur "looks OK to me" but you might want to double check for a live versus pre-printed signature.

I suspect the JBL Rep meeting was smaller than the President's Club 2000 — printed on the litho — so yours seems more likely to be an original.

Looks rushed but genuine to me. However, you may wish to look around for a more "typical" example.
