None of the fountain pen "structure" appears on the replica balls--the double lines produced by the split nib, the places where one line crosses another, etc. All of this is easily visible on my ball because the pen was relatively dry--it did not have a strong ink flow. There are pen impressions, as well. There is no doubt the ball was signed.
i posted large close-ups of this ball--and other autographs--here years ago. I will NOT be doing so again. |
I'm sure no laws were broken here, but if the artist said "Hey, that Atkaz ball has a sweet auto! I'm going to copy it for art balls," I'd at least think it'd be common courtesy to let the owner of the original know!
That's why I brought this back up, not to say that David had another bad ball or anything. I was wondering if he was even aware his ball had been copied.
