If you are asking for a reference in the TGM Book for Grip Type, it would be 10-2-B, Strong Single Action, is what is recommended. By recommended I mean based on the stroke pattern Homer defined in 12-1-0. A good review of 10-2-0 is also IMO a good idea. Getting PP#1 and PP#3 on the Aft of the shaft is, well it makes the golf stroke. Importance of PP#1 location, search for post of recent which discusses PP#1 and hitting.

Regarding the commone grips, overlapping, interlocked, etc, 10-1-A, overlapping is recommended per 12-1-0,

Also I would note, the idea of the left hand, thumb and index finger having no spacing has been discussed here on this forum. I believe the general consenus is that the idea of no space is not optiminal in all cases.

Another side note, the overlapping, often thought to be the little finger of the right hand resting between the index and middle finger of the left hand may not be ideal or correct for the golfer. Having the little finger rest on top of the left index may provide a better grip.

For the last two items, you can search here and find the posts where these have been discussed.
