One thing for sure, all of mine and all the ones I've ever seen (for what that's worth) have a much more "aggressive" R in reggie, especially in the ones where he's rushed which cause his "Jackson" to become truncated (like the one on your ball). If pressed, I'd say it wasn't good. Most likely a clubhouse if it's truly from that era.

Just a stupid question.....I think it is common knowledge, at least now anyway, that Reggie would sign opposite Billy Martin on team balls. Do we think it was common knowledge to the clubhouse people who Reggie employed to sign team balls back in the day? I know when I have seen. in person, team balls signed via clubhouse signatures, the guys doing the signing didnt care much where they were placing the "autograph" as long as it got on there. I wondered if we think this little quirk of Jackson's would have been followed by the clubbies when signing for him? Any thoughts?
