This is not a Heydler ball, how many times do we need to state that. Its a Tener and you can tell by the lower panel Spalding logo. I guarantee it.

A Heydler Ball isn't impossible...Check out the one here.

However, the only difference between the two balls seems to be the "1" and "l" on the top panel. That may be the giveaway to it more than likely being a Tener ball. I don't know for sure though..

I told you the difference is in the bottom logo, IT'S A TENER BALL! That ball you've linked to is a Heydler, look at the stitching in the bottom logo, small tight stitching is Heydler, the larger stitching logo on the TENER makes it A TENER. F.A.C.T.

Not a fact. You even said it yourself earlier in this thread, w/o a president stamp, could very well be a minor league ball.

Yes FACT. The only difference in the minor league ball would be NOT having the presidential stamp. Its clear as day that the bottom logo is the older style, why is this so hard to believe? Look at the link above, note the small stitching in the bottom logo, then look at the eBay ball and see how large it is, they didn't use that stamp for Heydler. Geez!

Not saying it's a Heydler, I'm saying it could be a minor league president stamp like Barrow or someone else.

I remain firm in my opinion its a NL Spalding Heydler 1918. Novakjr provided a link to Big League Baseballs showing a NL Spalding Heydler 1918 that matches identical to the originally posted ebay picture in every marking with the exception of the No. 1 vs No. l on the top of the baseball. I've not seen a Tener Baseball but show me one that supports that claim and I will gladly stand corrected.
