Skepticism is good
Skepticism is good. I don't think I could have been any clearer, though, that the Young stamp is not period. I believe it was created for the 75th anniversary of the National League. The Lynch baseball is the real thing; if you see it in person, you will have no doubt about it.
This discussion does raise a larger issue: how can you tell any baseball is vintage? It is becoming more and more difficult with several companies producing baseballs for "vintage base ball" leagues. I have used x-rays to date baseballs, since they allow you to get a good idea of what the core looks like. The stitches and the pattern of the stitching holes can also tell you quite a bit about the date of manufacture.
