Default A little help with a Ramirez 1A

Hi guys, got a 1A on consignment from a local customer, and I know very little about classicals. I recommended that he send it to Guitar Salon or similar, but he wanted to try a local sale with me first before doing so. Here's a couple of pics. I'm guessing it was made in 2001, and that it's a C-650mm-R traditional model. But beyond that, I'm clueless. Who's signature is that? And, do my eyes deceive me, or is that Brazilian rosewood?

Thanks guys!

edit i checked itr and it says: Back and sides: Indian rosewood (it can be constructed with Madagascar rosewood if it is made to order).
