Off the top of my head, I think the one you posted looks pretty par for the course as far as modern examples go.

I agree.  You could get a Mays on a current MLB ball for real cheap but most people like to get the guys like McCovey, Rizzuto, Aaron, Banks etc. on the older NL and AL baseballs.  They tend to be more expensive, but still relatively cheap compared to $400.  

I didn't look too much, but here's one on an NL ball for a decent price

put it in a ball holder, and seal it so he can't easily open it.

Here's a vintage in-person Mays signature from my collection. Went to a Mets team meet & greet at Shea in the 70's. Team bailed, but Mays made an appearance and saved the day.

I`d say your good with this sig.

Here's mine.  Again, I never understood the authentication overload - Say Hey, PSA and Steiner?  Seems a bit excessive, and a little bit awkward.

I find it interesting that Steiner issued a COA since I recently purchased a Willie Mays autographed baseball with a “Say Hey” inscription from them and I was told that they do not issue a Steiner COA along with it since the baseball came with a “Say Hey” hologram.  Here is a link to mine.

Well, in addition to the three authentications, I always found it a bit odd that there was a Steiner cert referencing a PSA sticker.

Agreed.  I have never seen that before.  How long ago did you purchase it?

I believe early 2009.  I'd have to check to be sure.
