This signature is believed to be ineligible for
copyright and therefore in the public domain because it falls below the required level of originality for copyright protection both in the United States and in the source country (if different). In this case, the source country (e.g. the country of nationality of the signatory) is believed to be Germany.
Note that this tag cannot be used on all signatures, as not all signatures are copyright-free.
Under United States Copyright Law, signatures are not eligible for copyright, as they are "titles, names...mere variations of typographic ornamentation, lettering, or coloring". (
