Baseball signature ink crossing
 

Curious of some opinions. Studying signatures and ink. I have some baseballs signed and from what I can identify that the blue ink has a definite crossing of ink when magnified. The black ink is stated as signed in 1939, would that style of ink be used then? when magnified I am also finding fades and crossing. Any info is helpful, thanks!

I’m not sure what you’re asking, but those ink lines looks re-traced to me. If that’s the case, even a Babe Ruth signature is basically worthless (I think).

Great minds...

Okay, it must be asked...

What the hell is "crossing of ink"? :confused:

First post guy, allow me to pose the question on everyone's mind...

"What in high heck are you actually asking about here???????????????"

7,522 post guy, seems pretty obvious.

From what little can be seen...
 

That looks to be a ball that is supposed to have been signed by Joe DiMaggio and Marilyn Monroe. Can you pose an image of the entire panel? It is doubtful that the style of DiMaggio which that appears to be would have been signed that early in his career.

And the ball below it looks like it's supposed to have been signed by Lajoie and Young. It has better odds of having been signed in 2039 than 1939.

You need to start finding your autographs from a different source. This stuff is Coach's Corner garbage.

I just discovered that not only is there a way to ignore members, but it's easy.

Go to their profile page, user lists, add to ignore list.


Goodbye to those of you who will now choose to ignore me.
