I've checked a programme he signed for me in 1974 and you can certainly see indentations on the back when it's held up to the light. Programme was signed with a ballpoint pen but your photo might have been signed with a fountain pen which wouldn't be pressed on so hard. He certainly took care in signing as mine is almost identical to the signature you have.

My prog was signed in the bottom left and yours is bottom right. This might just be where there was a suitable space but you may be able to check other signed items to see if he usually signed in the same place. Also your photo is probably on thicker paper than my prog which was quite thin paper and would show indentation easily.
