That is kind of what I was leaning towards the more I looked at it.  It seems like the autographs are to neat.  Here are a couple more pics.

That is not a stamped ball. I have never seen one on an official ball.  those signatures are authentic in my opinion, but some may have been traced over. The Curt Flood, which is a key on this ball, is very nice.

I'm sure William. I have a stamped ball from 1964 Red Sox that my dad bought for me at Fenway and I have seen plenty of them.  they are very obvious in most cases.  the only thing about this ball is I can't tell for certain if some of the signatures are traced over.  I would have to see the ball, or better pictures to be certain. but the signatures are definitely hand signed.

I think it is real as well. The pressure on the different names seems different. Wouldn't a stamp all be the same?

100 percent positive it is not a stamped ball.

It appears to be a 1965 St. Louis Cardinals team ball. I also agree that those signatures are not stamped.
