Although it's easy to understand why collectors/fans had Aaron and Maris sign Ruth balls, there is nothing more displeasing to my eye than ballpoint/felt tip on the same item as something signed in fountain pen. It's akin to partially restoring a '57 Chevy using seats from a 1982 Crown Vic. Thankfully, there are plenty of people who disagree, and a ball like that has tremendous appeal to them. It makes sense to some, but none to others.
