Sent 3 things for her to autograph, The West Point Story DVD cover and 2 8x10s. She personalized the photos, one to me and the other to my sister. However, the DVD cover was returned back unsigned and a brochure to Doris Day Animal Foundation was included too.

I used the address found on her official website:
Doris Day Animal Foundation
8033 Sunset Boulevard #845
Los Angeles, CA 90046

Sorry but this is SEC.

The comment above is incorrect. Your autographs are 100% authentic. Ms Day would not encourage autograph requests on her website if she were not able to fulfill them personally. Also, just look on Ebay. Currently there are a number of hand signed checks, hand written letters and other legal documents that once the handwriting style is compared, its easy to be certain of your signed photo's authenticity.

These are 110% SEC, if the original poster compares his autographs to the flyer for the animal fund he will clearly see the difference. The SEC is good BUT she has never mastered the art of doing the D the exact way Doris does them. She has not signed authentically TTM for many years & as for checking items on ebay to authenticate - that's no way to check at all. Many sellers have these TTM SEC autos of Doris for sale with all kinds of fancy COA's with them.

Pale007 compare the animal fund flyer with her signatrue at the bottom to your autos & you will se what I mean about the D not being correct - sorry to say your's like everyone elses are SEC.

Which is unfortunate because her website solicits donations for her Foundation in exchange for the autographs. One would hope at least those signatures would be authentic.

I don't have a problem with celebrities charging for autographs or requesting charitable donations in exchange for them, but I don't think it's too much to ask that the celebrity themself actually signs the thing.

Oh, well, que sera sera.

I am sorry but you are incorrect. Doris has changed the way she signs her D a number of times over the years. She currently signs it the way she did in the 50s. Again, these are NOOOOT secretarial autographs everyone. You can not authenticate a signature just by looking at the way the first letter is signed. You have to look at the writing style of the other words in the personalization etc. I have done some homework for you even though I can tell you for certain these are Authentic.

Here is one with the D signed the way you know is authentic. Look at the handwriting in the personalization (listing is complete but click on it for a larger view of the pic:
