Clubhouse Signatures
 
If you have a ball that has say 4-5 clubhouse signatures, and I'm not talking about a team signed ball, but a ball signed by various baseball stars and several are clubhouse variety, can't the ones deemed good almost too be potential "clubhouses", but just very good ones.

Sometimes it's easier just saying fakes, although yes I know there is a difference between a clubhouse and a fake, but if it's not a single team of players I don't consider those clubhouse. Yet that's what they are called on the PSA or JSA.

I'll post a pix of one shortly, but for the most part I'm talking in general.

I am just wary of purchasing a ball that has 3-4 good sigs and then also has 4-5 clubhouses. Just seems weird to me. Was the "signer" just really good at the 3-4 and butchered the other ones.

To add to this, I've seen quite a few HOF induction ceremony balls (presumedly where all the present HOFers sign a ball that's being passed around) with "clubhouse" Campanellas. How could they have a fake/clubhouse Campy sig on these if they are being passed around? Does anybody know how these HOF balls are signed?

I'm thinking maybe they have a bunch of these balls in some lounge at the HOF (like they do with team balls in the clubhouse) and just have the HOFers sign them as they come in and out of the backroom/clubhouse? If Campy was going to have a ghost signer (like his wife or assistant), why not just NOT sign the balls? If they have one clubhouse signature, I always feel like there could be more on the ball.

Here's the one I was talking about

Just don't get why/who would put the other sigs on it. Lessens the ball, although, I'm sure they weren't thinking that at the time.

Why a "clubhouse" of Franklin D. Roosevelt? That seems like a very strange name to add to this ball. It is obviously not authentic but how did it wind up on this ball.
