more close up photos of the Signature: both signatures and all of the same ink was written

Sir, What does it mean "I just suspect it was not 100% untouched"?
Please explain this because I don't understand your opinion.
Do you mean someone wrote or manipulated the signature in badly? Why?
Thanks in advance

As I stated before, I cannot draw the conclusion that the soldbuch is fake, but normally the signatures should be in the same handwriting in a soldbuch. By watching the 2 signatures in this soldbuch, we can see "Jans" are the same, while "Radeke" are different, isn't it a bit strange? I cannot conjecture what had happened to the signatures, at least the soldbuch is not for me.

Regarding the signature of the soldier to whom the book was issued he signed below his picture and again on page two and the signatures appear to be by the same hand. All other listings of his name were done by the clerk filling out the Soldbuch.

On the first page, the clerk wrote the guy's first name in his regular handwriting and the last name in Latin block letters so it would be more readily legible. He didn't bother doing this on page 3. It is nothing to be worried about.

I like the Soldbuch at the first glance though I'm not a paper & document collector.
Intrigued, I would like to know why the portrait of the soldier is not full-faced photo? As I've ever seen, the portrait of soldbuch should be front side photograph, so that the guy could be easily identified.

the provision says no cap worn, but you can find the soldbuch foto in which the soldier is wearing the cap. not always tally with the provision.

at my first saw to this soldbuch, i really don't like the seals stamped onto the front foto, i never saw SS seal like that, and the eagle looks bad, however i can't see all kinds of SS seals, so i can't reach final conclusion. i checked the thread at least 3 times from pages and pages, but i am persuaded by the others seals in the soldbuch, especially the 3 seals on page 23, that is very nice !

still no conclusion for this soldbuch, but i insist on my opinion: it is original ! hope i am not wrong !

Thanks for your comments.

The photo is 100% untouched and authenticity for me, matched condition with the Soldbuch. Please see the two rusty clasp on the corners at the portrait photo and the front cover, no any extra holes on the cover or the photo. Regarding the stamps: these SS stamps are specific, it's made out for the SS Pz. Grenadier Aus and Ersatz Bataillon 10 in Brün, it was the first unit of him.
