Christy Mathewson's signed edition of Won in the Ninth?

[travrosty]

There are inconsistencies found on these bookplates that really cant be found elsewhere on exemplars both before and after these were purported to be signed.

The capital M in Mathewson normally points way back if you follow the beginning stroke backwards toward the name Christy. These bookplates have the first stroke in Mathewson point down right away if you follow it back, it doesn't make sense if you look at the historical record of his signature. he did this 500 times in a row, but both before and after he didn't seem to do it this way.

check out all the other exemplars siged in a similar time frame and other time frames and look a where the M points. How do 500 point down in an acute angle when almost all the other ones you see point way back over the top of the ty in Christy in the majority of them and over the y on the rest, but none fall short of the y like in the 400 or 500 examples he did for the bookplates?
