Do I Remove Fake Ty Cobb Autograph From Genuine Hughie Jennings Signed Bat??

prewarsports · #1 09-17-2014, 10:18 AM

What I find interesting is that Hugh Jennings generally had a much different autograph on a baseball than on a flat surface. His signature on a baseball tended to be more of a print style, especially with his "J" (several players did this back in the day) for the exact reason already mentioned... signing a round baseball is difficult with a steel tipped fountain pen. Logic would tell you that signing a bat would be equally difficult so I wonder why he would sign in this style here as well. Just a thought.

He wasn't drunk?

Bat in hand. Here are some close up pictures. I'm a novice when it comes to autographs, but the Donie Bush looks good to me, the Ty Cobb looks bad, the Hughie Jennings has some things that I like, the Oscar Stanage is tough to read, and the others, well.... I've included detailed pics of the bat including 3 on the other side which state "Detroit Base Ball Club". Again, may be wishful thinking, but I believe it is a little more difficult to sign a bat. I also have in hand the 2001 PSA/DNA letter of auth from James Spence claiming the ALL of the autos are authentic. Any help will be appreciated! Thanks!

I'm no expert but looks to me like same person who signed Cobb's name signed Jennings too.

Why not post it in the autograph section.
