Author Postings roy BuckaCover.com - 80,000 covers priced 60c to $1.50 - Easy browsing 300 categories 18 Jan 2021 09:46:36amI have been unable to find any relevance of this signature to the issue. (Usually, it is the stamp designer, but not in this case).
Can anybody help?

This one is a mystery. That is Scott no. 1306.
According to the stamp production credits listed in my Milennium Edition of Linn's World Stamp Almanac the following names are listed:
B.E. Pringle - Designer
R.L. Miller - Modeler
J.S. Creamer, Jr. - Vignette Engraver
H.F. Sharpless - Lettering Engraver
The signatures on your FDC don't seem to match any of those names.

I've attended just a handful of relatively recent first day ceremonies, but I've definitely seen USPS officials sign them. (Perhaps even just the local postmaster?)

Edit, I'm a few minutes late.
