Beloved Monarch and Queen of the United Kingdom QUEEN ELIZABETH II incredibly scarce autograph predating her ascension to the throne in 1953, certainly signed while still a Princess. Elizabeth signs simply as "Elizabeth", she later changed her signature to "Elizabeth R" once she became Queen. Autograph is countersigned by Prince Philip. These autographs were certainly signed sometime between 1947 and 1953. The word "from" above the signature is also in Elizabeth's hand. 
 
Signatures have been reviewed by JSA who thoroughly examined the signature to make sure it was hand-signed live ink. JSA LOA included. 
 
Queen Elizabeth II has been using an autopen and stamp signatures since as early as 1952 (the first year of her reign), most notably on appointments, and later on Christmas cards and photos. Many documents currently for sale on eBay that are purported as authentic are actually signed by autopen. Don't miss this chance to add an authenticated Elizabeth II handwritten note to your collection. 
 
Cut measures 3"x5.5". Autographs are on heavy stock - likely cut from a Christmas card. Ink has toned and is a shade light, especially at the start of the E in Elizabeth.
