Hubbell inscription help

Thoughts on this Carl Hubbell inscription? I’ve never seen one with periods after the HOF. Is the hand writing to neat compared to the autograph? Over the past few years I have seen a number of balls signed by Hubbell that had very neat inscriptions compared to the shaky autograph and sometimes in different ink. All had TPAs. Makes me wonder if they were added by another hand when they were signed or at a later date. Anyone have further information?

That HOF inscription looks way too neat. You rarely see any Hubbell with an inscription, so I would guess it was added after the fact.

Not even close

Compare this ball to authentic Hubbell baseballs from this period and you'll see for yourself that it is horrible and not even close.

Yes, I have done that. Just wanted to get the boards opinion to make sure I was not missing something on the inscription.
