Looking for opinions on signed '52 Dodgers ball
3 Attachment(s)
Hi, I posted this on the main memorabilia page and haven't had any feedback, so I'm posting it here. I'm looking for opinions on a 1952 Brooklyn Dodgers signed ball. I understand there's a good chance the team's bat boy signed at least some of the signatures. I noticed several players — Rocky Bridges, Clem Labine and Dick Williams — dotted all their i's with small circles, which seems suspicious. Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks, Chris

Is Roy Campanella on the ball?
|
I couldn't locate Campanella or Hodges, but they might be there. Several are really tough to make out. Regarding the Jackie Robinson signature, it looks more like original examples than the ones I've seen written by Charlie DiGiovanna. But I'm no expert.

Here are two of my Jackie baseballs that are from the same era, circa 1950 and are authentic, that you can compare to. Yours is tough to see from that photo.

Second Jackie ball...
|
Too hard to tell in the scan, but who is under Furillo in the first scan? It has the shape of Campy possibly.
|
I first thought it might be Campanella, but I later ruled it out. Up close, the first name looks like William, and the last name looks like it could be Antonello. But I can't find an example of Bill Antonello signing his name with "William" instead of "Bill."
