I agree with you completely, Jason. I don't believe this one for a minute.

Appears to be both done by the same hand, IMO

My first reaction was the same. To, to perfect. Plus could it just be a copy.? Plus if it's fake it's a very good one

Did that barnstorming tour go through Columbus? And if it didn't, why would those signatures be on that hotel stationery?

I'm usually skeptical of things that make no sense.

Although I did buy one that made no sense this summer it was taking a chance on a common signature that was on a minor league ball and the only description the flea market guy gave me was "That one is little league or something " And it was only $2.
I don't think I'd take the same sort of chance on this one. Being cheap can save a bit of trouble sometimes
