2. Some of the signatures look very shaky and deliberate, I can see points where it looks like they stop and start where they shouldn't.
I've got a few team signed balls; my oldest is 1940, another is 1943. I agree with above post that the style of pen seems wrong. But also, some of the signatures should be at different levels of fading. they should not all be signed like it was a year ago.
