I just picked up this old baseball. Any idea of age and or value is appreciated. It appears to have some very light signatures but I can't read any of them. The weight is 4.6oz.

Wow hard to see any signatures if any, must need to see it up close - the aging appears to be at least before the 1930s but defiantly not before 1900 - stitching looks like a hand made type but real hard to tell - but most likely hand made - cool early ball - I would have to say from the teens or so - but you just never know with these as age wear is different for many types of baseballs - you could have a 1940s ball that looks like it could be from the 1920s - having other baseballs to compare is always helpful
