In addition, the pack just looks faked aged to me. I would say 99% chance it's a copy. The best persn you could speak to would be Rob Lifson at Robert Edward Auctions. Shoot him an email with your scans. He's handled the real sign... if anyone can tell you whether it's good or not, he can. If it is good, you're looking at $100k or so.

If you read the article on Robert Edward Auctions site, they say that their piece was touched up, come on, they have ty Cobb looking like some sort of Jezebel.
i stand by this piece and would have any expert look at it.
The person you suggest to look at it, i would not let expertize it.

Unfortunately it's still a reproduction... no matter who you have look it at. But, if you enjoy it, keep it as display piece.
