Need Artist ID Thrift Store Find

[Antny]

Picked this up at a local thrift store for a few dollars. It looks like a vintage illustration (checked under loop). Great subject matter. Early "Woman's Lib. " LOL. I need help with the signature...can't make out the name. Any other information would be appreciated. Thanks! It says "Bachelor's Club No Trespassing." The bag has a bunch of shot men. Measures 17" X 27"

I am just not sure that the Artist is in fact Harold Thomas Denison. While it is very possible he signed early artworks as H.T. Denison, that doesn't explain the total difference in the signature style of the last name and I also can find none to match the signature on the O.P.'s watercolor.

I don't think the difference in the signatures disqualifies this piece as Denison's. Do a search on "artist signatures" and look at Matisse, Picasso, and even Rembrandt and Van Gogh. Their signatures all changed during their careers, although maybe not as dramatically as Denison's.
