Is this a real Munson or a clubhouse? I believe the ball is a 1979 team signed. The munson looks like a older style auto. Comparing it to most autos on 1977-79 balls his normal auto is smaller.

This is the one from EBay right? Someone emailed me asking about it.

No good imo...
Doesn't look like Thurman's hand to me...

I would agree no good IMO. Looks too slowly written and too neat.

Thanks guys. What do you think of these other autos on the ball. Like I said its a 1979 yankee ball.

I think most of the signatures look real. The only one, beside Munson, that concerns me, is the Nettles as the ink is much darker and the sig is in a form I am not familiar with. I would say the Munson is a clubhouse version.

Munson definitely clubhouse.

It might just be me, but aside from Munson, I think all the sigs in black (the darker ones) might be clubhouse. The Nettles, Guidry and Dent seem off compared to IP ones I got back in those days.

Same thing...the darker black ones don't seem right to me.
Don Hood...good (one of my all-time favorite sigs)
Chambliss...good
Doyle...looks off
Randoph...way off

Got the ball today even though I now know I paid too much. Here's a closer view of the Martin and the Jackson. Is either one good? The martin is a darker auto but compared to good Martin autos on team balls it looks like a match, but I'm not the expert... thanks

Just my opinion, but I don't like the Martin auto either.

The Randolph isn't even close to my IP ball.

That surprises me, I actually think its good.

And it very well could be. It doesn't seem to match my 80's A's balls, but there might be a reason for that.

Here are some Billy Martin sweet spot examples. You can definitely tell a difference in the B in Billy and M in Martin.

Nate,
Just curious why the three you post all seem to be signed differently. Are they clubhouse or real?

Don't they though? These all came from 3 different auctions. All of which were psa or jsa authenticated.

One of these has to be a clubhouse but neither auction mentions it. So never mind, I honestly don't know.
