Default Legendary Auctions 1906 Word Series Ticket

How can anyone say that this ticket is a World Series ticket from 1906? There is a hand written date, but that could have been written at any time for many different reasons. The two 1907 ones at least have a reference to it being a World Series game. Yet the 1906 has nothing. If anything the reference for the rain check to be used for any game during the season makes it seam like this is a regular season ticket.

Also Legendary says the ticket can't be authenticated:

Please note: PSA was unable to encapsulate this ultra-rare ticket, though the inability was doubtless due to the absence of exemplars.
So how sure can anyone be that this really was a ticket from the 1906 World Series? Also what would stop someone from writing dates on other 1906 tickets and passing them off as the same if this is the same style of ticket they used for the main season?


I want to say I am not asking this because I know the answer and want to "trap" people, but I really don't know and am curious. I don't deal with vintage tickets and I have been pondering this since I first read the auction write up.
