FWIW, my MUA (The Bat!) shows your photo, then displays:-

  OpenPGP Signature verified OK

  # off=0 ctb=ff tag=63 hlen=2 plen=11 new-ctb
:packet 63: length 11 # off=13 ctb=cb tag=11 hlen=2 plen=0 partial new-ctb
:literal data packet:
        mode t (74), created 0, name="",
        raw data: unknown length
# off=1118 ctb=89 tag=2 hlen=3 plen=284
:signature packet: algo 1, keyid 5CC686F11A1ABC84
        version 4, created 1427312516, md5len 0, sigclass 0x01
        digest algo 8, begin of digest fd d6
        hashed subpkt 2 len 4 (sig created 2015-03-25)
        subpkt 16 len 8 (issuer key ID 5CC686F11A1ABC84)
        data: [2046 bits]


I also tried to verify the signature from the message source, just for
shits and giggles. This sometimes works if a PGP/MIME signature won't
verify for me when I click the button. On this occasion it didn't.
