Definitely not Rod Carew on the one. I think the sig at the top of picture 3 is Matt Williams though. And fairly sure the second from the bottom in your last pic is Brett Butler.

The top signature in #3 looks like Matt Williams, and the one below Ken Griffey Jr is Dennis Martinez.

Edited to add: second autograph in #2 is Rod Carew.

The more I look at ball 1, pic 3, the lighter sig, it looks a bit like Roger Clemens to me.

I think the one below Mike Morgan is a sloppy Roger Clemens.

Alright, y'all convinced me that's Carew given the other vintage sigs. I've actually got multiple Carews and see it now; honestly hadn't even bothered to compare as the sig was so strange looking.

You've got a neat ball here!

This is ridiculously scary, but I think the signature that is blurred into oblivion used to be Fergie Jenkins...God help me I have a problem...

A few that stand out the most are Glavine and Carew.

Glavine's just looks pretty bad. Looks to be slowly drawn even. Slant is off, letter formations look off.

Carew's R is the only thing that looks good to me. It does appear either super sloppy or rushed. So never know.

My biggest concern is there are many autographs that appear to be quick/rushed. Why are a lot of them like this? Usually on the ones I've gotten there aren't that many on a ball.

I hope I'm wrong. Looks to be era signed so could have been at the game itself and they were trying to sign as many as they could.

Thanks. I assume they are rushed stadium or hotel sigs. I actually got a Rod Carew sig at the 1991 ASG and it looks just like this. I was confused as to whether or not it was Brett Butler - as I got him too - but on a program that I can't find in storage.
