Grover Cleveland Alexander Autograph????

[yanks12025]

I bid on this baseball last week because it was a 1920s ball. It wasn't until after I won it, that I noticed the auto on the sweetspot is Glover Cleveland Alexander. After getting, it looks to be a 1926-28 cardinals ball based on Specs Toporcer and also Bob O'Farrell. I can't make out other autographs because they're pretty much faded away.

Now the Glover Cleveland Alexander autograph is still very bold. It compares to another one of his autos signed on a baseball.

So the big question is,

1.has the autograph been enhanced(i see no parts of a auto underneath)
2.is it a fake all together
3. it's original and stayed strong some how and it was ruined by water(ball looks to have water damage maybe causing the leather to rip)?????


thanks
