I bought it in a dollar bin. The ball is signed as seen on the sweet spot of a youth baseball
I am not a dealer or cheat
I just bought a ball in the dollar bin and it looks like a Schwarzenegger
I thought this was a place to share and discuss

Some free advice. Your posts are obviously raising some ire amongst the forum members. May I suggest that if you have a bunch of "unknown"'autographs, perhaps think about putting them all in one post (using successive pics) and let those that enjoy that sort of thing try and assist. The "known"'autos that you have that you are unsure of their authenticity, perhaps try and seeking an opinion from the TPAs? Just a thought.

The outfeild of my youth. That is up my collecting alley, but unfortunately not of interest to more than a handful of forum members/Jays fans.

U probably thought the terminator referred to tom henke.

If it was for sale for $1 the seller didn't think it was an authentic Arnold Schwarzenegger signed baseball or was selling it as one.

I see bargain bins all the time at shows. They're just filled with what the dealer considers to be overflow or barely valuable. I don't think it would be unsual to pull signed baseballa from a dollar bin that the dealer isn't sure about. Thinking it's signed by someone and knowing it's signed by someone are two totally different things. I'd charge a dollar for a baseball with a totally unknown signature I thought maybe resembled someone else's too. If I'm selling it at all.

I'd agree with that-- common ball player signatures identities can be forgotten with time and are often hard to read. Except everyone would remember the baseball signed by Arnold Swarzenegger. That's like a baseball signed by Prince Charles or Madonna-- something the owner won't forget.

I'm sure there are bargain bins for unreadable signatures and other thowaways and, yes, it is theoretically possible that a Madonna or Terminator signed baseball could fall into the bid. But it seems unlikely.

If a story was a genuine Swarzenegger signed baseball was won at a show with a $1 raffle ticket, I could definitely see that happening.
