Is this signature written by hand directly onto the book, or is it a printed version of a handwritten signature? I want it to be the former, but my colleague thinks it's the latter.

It's of Rabindranath Tagore, Bengali poet and winner of the Nobel Prize for literature

@prabirkc @histodons thank you for your reply. Somebody on here replied to say they found a copy at New York public library, so I have contacted them to see if they can send me a photograph to compare the signature. It certainly looks different to the signatures that you found...It was published in 1938 and is a memorial address to Jagadish Chandra
