Both do not look good to me. I recall these being for sale on eBay - were they not?

Cy Young does not look good to me. The "Y" in Young looks like a the way he formed his "C" in Cy. Also, the "g" in Young does not appear to be right at all. The sequence of pen strokes is totally different than how he formed the top portion of the "g". Just my opinion, but I collect his signature. I can't comment on Nap Lajoie.
I hope you find this helpful!

Neither Young nor Lajoie looks good to me.

I bought these on ebay 9 years ago. I am taking them to psa next weekend so I will let you know what they think. However I found a psa authenication on similar youngs and lajoies that match mine and intend to show them.

Young looks real bad. Lajoie not as bad, but bad too.

The fact of the matter is this:

Neither Cy Young nor Larry Lajoie signed those photos--regardless of what some bozo at PSA may or may not say now, or said in the past.
