I'm not sure the "slightly worse" SCP/Helms example is a 1:1 comparison if you're trying to make a point. That ball has significant damage exactly on the sweet spot and if you didn't know it you might not be able to tell the signature reads "Johnson". On the whole, the ball I have- as any old run-of-the-mill ho-hum Walter Johnson signed baseball, and as an object of baseball history- is in a better class.

Thanks though. I do appreciate opinions, which is why I asked.
