Default Mathewson Won in the Ninth Signed?

Posted By: davidcycleback

The REA one is much smaller, the line after 'presentation copy' doesn't extend past the 'h' in 'Won in the Ninth' and has dotted lines above the solid lines. At first I thought the dots might be the way the typer typed, but there are also dotted lines where the signature was signed.

Again, I'm not overly familiar with this book and don't know the variations to the signing and plate. However, under ordinary circumstances the book plates for a limited edition signed book would have been printed at one time and would be alike ... If two years later Christy itched to sign some more and asked the printer for new plates, that could explain the difference ("And this time remove those f***ing dots!")
