Christy Mathewson's signed edition of Won in the Ninth?

[travrosty]

yes, but those good ones show differences, but here and there, some have a difference here, some there, with different letters. These bookplates show a difference that doesnt seem to show up any other place, both before and after, only 400 in a row like that never to be seen again, or before. that's what makes it suspect.

other anomalies from the other good examplars can be found before and after, in other signatures signed in different places, under different circumstances. on letters and other pieces of paper. these are 400 in a row signed just one way we have never really seen before or since that signing. that's what makes it suspect. If he angled the M down sharply like that, why wouldn't he do that a few times after he signed these bookplates? signatures dont just take a big left turn like that and then revert to how they were signed before. that is my observation. i respect everyones opinion.
