Travis, the Aaron on the cover of the 715 mag is 100% legit.  the one on the ball, as Zipper stated, is not authentic.  yes, his late in life signatures are shaky, but they are also totally different from this.  I am attaching a photo of a vintage Hank Aaron signed ball from my collection for your comparison.

Yes Robert...I think Zipper and Travis are correct...Zipper makes a good point on how a forger may have copied his older signature as well as the autos that look as if it looks like HAL...not saying the HAL types are all bad because there not...but the forgers have modeled there bad ones to this style and I got a bad feeling this is not authentic...I have one in my photos in my in person album of a Hank Aaron auto I got in January and it looks almost exactly like Travis's example...but the only difference is I got mine in the flesh...not sure if Travis got his in person but his is no question authentic...

appreciate the feedback folks...travis should have used "shakey"...sorry.

I am going to have to follow up with the auction house. I don't feel I am going to get any where though...
