Authenticity is Everything

Jimmie Foxx baseball real or fake

I looked around the net and saw many Jimmie Foxx signed baseballs with PSA/JSA grading and they almost all look different. I also read he has one of the wide range of autographs and I was wondering if you all think this is real or forgery. Thanks

I'll preface this by saying that I've never studied his signatures before, but I think it's a forgery. The "just signed yesterday" quality of the ink is a red flag, and looking at about 10 authenticated exemplars of his signature, this looks much different. For one Jimmie is usually more rounded, if you look at the top and bottom of all the letters, these are very sharp.
