Hope you might be able to help me with a long-time piece from my collection. Below is a newspaper clipping which has been affixed to a cardboard backing and postally used. As you can see from the scans, the item is signed by Gehrig, Lazzeri and Dickey. I purchased the piece in the early 1990's from Ron Oser. I have never sent it to any company to be authenticated but wanted to get some opinions on it.
The one question I have relating to this piece is the different pens used. As you may note from the scan below, both Lazzeri and Dickey are signed in a black fountain pen. Gehrig, however, is signed in what appears to be a brown fountain pen - or it is certainly more faded and not as dark.
Any thoughts?
