Christy Mathewson autographed baseball

What do you think about this Christy Mathewson autographed baseball?

It looks to me like it's authentic, but I cannot tell for sure.

Thanks.

Dustin

I know that, but it also matches perfectly with his known examples of autographs, doesn't it??

So, Dustin, you're a collector of vintage autographs?  You've studied vintage autographs?

Yes, I have collected and studied vintage autographs now for about ten years, and if you take a look at his other signatures, they look just like this one.

Some Christy Mathewson signatures still appear to be very dark, even though they were signed a long time ago.

Yeah forgers tend to try to do that. Crazy concept huh?

Rick that's funny

Yeah, crazy concept for a ball from the 1920s, eh? Why would a forger use a ball from the 1920s? They are hard to obtain.

How do you know it's a ball from the 20's? Have you seen the ball in person or other angle photos?

I know from the stitching.

No offense Dustin, but you should have the stitching that's holding your head together restitched.

Why? Boy, you people sure are rude. What is the matter with you?
