I know this is probably in the wrong place but my phone won't let me get to the auto section so if I mod could move it that would be awesome. Anyways can someone tell me if this is real pen or how I can tell? I know this is either from the 85 or 86 reds I've picked out most of the names I just can't tell if the pen is real without smudging it. 153812153813153814153815153816153817153818

That looks like a facsimile souvenir ball. They were a popular item at call parks during the 70's and 80's. All of the signatures are in the same color with the same pressure. There is also no overlap of autographs. The ink doesn't look drawn on but rather stamped. It's a nice souvenir for a Reds fan but unfortunately that's all it is. Sorry,

+1. Agreed. Looks like a souvenir. Nice piece but not actual autographs.

Just for added support, you definitely have a sovenier stand stamped ball-no question about it.
