Very curious about this one as well. My understanding was this was not possible.
Good catch. Young died in November 1955 and supposedly the Type ll Artvue post cards were not produced until 1956. It is possible that production started in 1955 and some got out before Young died but there was very little if any possibility for old Cy to sign one of these. Also, that signature does not look like it was signed near the end of his life as his signature had deteriorated late in life. Funny, PSA/DNA even dates the card to 1956-1963. Guess they did not realize Young died in 1955.
