Geniuses of the PH Forum: I need your help.
I'm just having a clearout of my attic and have come across a bundle of programmes from Classic Car shows in the 80s and 90s. The 1990 NEC Classic & Sportscar show has this signature in it:



Does anyone recognise it? I have no recollection at all of getting anything signed at that show. Could just be that my Mum ran into someone famous in the cafe!

I thought the same but that first word isn't Frank to my eyes. But then again to my eyes it looks like IvAA something...

Hmmmm... it does look like it might be. Still no recollection though, maybe Altzheimers is setting in after all.

Given Sir Franks spinal issues, can he still sign an autograph?
