LOOK at the last words in his write up
I can make ANY player, on ANY ball, aged ANY way you want. |

A computer ??? Back then Rich they weighed 6 thousands pounds and took up 2,000 square feet.
Ok I'll admit I probably DID wait a little too long on the NET54 part |

Even under mild magnification ("Mouse here to zoom in") it looks nothing like a real, fountain pen signature.

Looking only at the scanned images of that particular ball even with the magnification its close enough that it would fool ALOT of people. I would bet that if someone hired a couple of 80 year olds to walk around the National with IT and a story about their "Uncle Joe" or "Aunt Betty" , they would have it sold as genuine before they had a chance to get to their car.

It would certainly fool some collectors--perhaps many collectors. In my opinion, though, any dealer fooled by that ball should rethink his occupation.
