"+1 many exemplars."
"I wouldn’t go by matching one ball, you should start to see similarities among several balls. Even though his signature changed, there are still some things he does consistently over the years."
"Steve, thanks for your insight with this. When I researched his signature over the years he did it, he did change it in the 80's. What made me think it was authentic was this image from this ball I found online. Hank%20Aaron.jpg it…"
