Thank you for mentioning this. Many people seem to refer to any felt tip signature as a "Sharpie," but it's simply not true. The old water-based felt tip markers (Flair and others) have been in common use much longer than Sharpies.
This was signed with a felt tip pen in July 1969. It was not a Sharpie.
