Iron vs. Kiddo
The first set of signatures are authentic exemplars of the very tough George A. "Iron Davis", a pitcher for the 1914 Miracle Braves. The second group is of the plentiful George W. "Kiddo" Davis of the Gas House Gang. The letter "D" in Davis does confuse the auction houses at times when one comes up for sale, listing a Kiddo Davis inaccurately as Iron Davis. Other than the "D" though, the rest of the signatures are quite different. Hope this is helpful.
