The first ball is an open "a". The tops do not touch, close, but no cigar.

You are correct in regard to the second ball, it does have a closed "a", but if you will look at my description, I state that it has an open "d", which it does.

The Ted Williams ball shown in the post also has an open "d", and that ball will pass anybody that actually knows an authentic Ted Williams signature.

As I stated before, it is a myth. There are four examples in the post, and three are UDA.

Yeah, UD is the best, the absolute best.
Look at the great stuff they have brought into the hobby.
I have many more pictures of other UD beauties too.
No myths here, just UD cards that all had huge price tags on ebay over the years.

Yep, just like a lot of people, they depended on someone's opinion on those pieces.

The signed in person stuff under UDA witness program is different.

Whose opinion could they possibly have relied on for those pieces of junk?
JSA? No way.
PSA? No way.
In my opinion they relied on nobody's opinion on those items. They just stupidly went out into the autograph minefield and bought the cheapest items they could find,with no regard to checking authenticity.
I wonder which of their corporate geniuses was responsible for that.
I would think that person is now in the UDA witness protection program, probably a barista at the local coffee emporium in Albuquerque, praying that the jerks who bought this crap don't find him/her.

They use to get a lot of their vintage autographed items from Kevin Keating, but once these cut signature cards started being scrutinized and questioned heavily in regard to authenticity, they started using JSA for their vintage autograph reviews.
