While the page seemingly appears to commemorate that event, it certainly wasn't signed in 1911. Period exemplars of Cobb and Johnson which can be definitively dated are much different in formation from those found on the sheet. I would hypothesize that the sheet was created and signed no earlier than the late 1930's, but more likely the 1940's. Also, the presence of Katie Jackson's secretarial Shoeless would certainly point to the 1940's, as examples predating that decade are rarely encountered.
