Yes, that is his signature. I checked several other signed covers. I liked this one because of the stamp and the plate number. Covers with this cancel are documented in Roessler's "Standard Historical Souvenir Airmail Catalog" at a value of $5.00. I paid a little more than that.
They are not exactly rare. They still fetch a good price (couple of hundred dollars). I've forgotten how much I paid for this one, but I got it from Mccusker's during one of his 40% off sales.
Not rare at all. He was a prolific autograph signer, but he's still highly popular to this day so the prices are strong. I have one for sale on a #10-size event cover for $50. if anyone interested.
