Keep in mind that this particular cover was addressed to Rutherford, NJ, which is a suburb of New York City. Perhaps the recipient couldn't get up to Cooperstown personally on induction day, and was far more likely to encounter The Babe locally over the following nine years.

Since this signature does have issues, however, all the above would be moot in this specific instance. I'm just saying that one thing to consider is the recipient's proximity to the player's home/ballpark.
