looks very consistent with others that I've seen and have owned. Best guess from a scan is that it's probably good. Looks like it's on a baseball...if it is, you may want to double check the ball stamp to determine if it was possible for him to have signed that particular ball.

Looks good to me too. Good advice too in checking the ball for proper executive, etc on the ball.

Good, IMHO.

It is on a ball but it's on the side panel...
I will check the ball itself to make sure it dates back to his life time... I think it's a Bobby Brown ball but will check.
The side panel bothers me as the sweet spot would have been the place.

Arnold, if you just don't like the fact that the sig is not on the sweetspot because that's where you like it to be, then that's one thing, but don't judge the validity of the sig on that. I remember back around the time that this would have been signed there were balls floating around that had the Haiti stamp right on the darn sweetspot. Some players just signed right over it....which was not very attractive, and others signed on the side panel. Not saying this is the case, but a possibility. Anyway, good luck.

No if authentic... side panel works for me...

Its A Bobby Brown bal, so I beleive it to be in the correct time period.
