We believe the evidence clearly establishes that no written lease was “signed by the parties.” The uncontradicted evidence was that Mr. Cohen, President of respondent, affixed his signature to the form lease tendered him by appellant conditionally, subject to review by respondent’s counsel. We are concerned here with a commercial lease which was a “form lease” and we believe the evidence is clear that it did not contain the entire agreement between the parties. Nevertheless, in view of the undisputed evidence that no written lease was signed by the parties, the agreement, if any, could amount, by operation of law, to no more than a tenancy at will; § 432.050, Longmier v. Kaufman, supra, p. 389[1].
