Any clue who signed this baseball, or what a BAB- authentication on the internet. Any clue guys? BAB-78398 is hologram.

Looks like a UDA upper deck authenticated sticker to me.

I don't think it's either Parrish. Lance has a beautiful flowing signature with a slant. Larry's is more like the ball, but normally his P is pretty big and the letters are more spaced and readable.

Scottie Pippen ?


I looked at a photo of his, it wasn't as loopy, his "P" is pretty ornate but I'm certainly not an authority. I never considered it could be someone non-baseball. I wonder if it's Negro League?

My first two thoughts when I looked at this were:

1. Take it out of the cube!!! Why do people insist on shooting through the plastic at a ridiculous angle? It is not the Shroud of Turin. If you turned it toward the camera you may actually get some educated guesses. The easiest way to decipher any signature is to see it head on, not at an angle where you can barely see the letters.

2. You ask about some hologram, yet you don't even show it. Leon does not charge you to post multiple photos. You may get some help with that.

That being said, the second name may well begin with an "F". If I recall correctly Tim Foli would sign using that type of "F" for his last name. The first name could begin with an "S" or a "D".

Email Upper Deck with the hologram number, they'll get back to a few days later but it'll be worth it. I had to do it once with a jodran jersey but they confirmed it's theirs.

Ask them who does the signature belong to, you found it in a box of stuff from a previous move and have since lost the actual COA.

Also, if you have Twitter, you can usually get a response back from Upper Deck within an hour or two.
