Scott, sure, I'll scan the one I have (that looks like Shelly's) of Grove tonight when I get home. I think I also have a signed baseball card and ball with Grove on it, which I'll also post later tonight.

That's not the one I wanted to see, but thanks.

I wanted to see the one that you said looks like the Grove on this sheet.

I guess we misread each other's comments then.

I was responding to Shelly when I said that I had one that looked exactly like his (the 3x5 of Grove that Shelly posted)...not the OP's. Like I stated, I think the Grove from the OP's sheet looks suspect. Grove usually signed smaller and slanted. That example looks tall and light-pressured.

For what it's worth anyways, I'll post the Lefty Grove's that I have. The two 3x5 cards look like the one Shelly posted. I'm not sure about the ball, but it does seem authentic, IMO. Any opinions on the ball are welcome. Anyways, to the OP, they look very different from the one on that signed page.

Jason, just curious who else is on the ball?

It's some old timers ball (circa 1970s?)... the more notables include Johnny Mize, Tommy Holmes, Ted Klu, and Monte Irvin, etc. There are minor stars such as Jim Gilliam, Dick Sisler, and Wally Post, etc. There is also a secretarial Campy.
Did you think the Grove looked iffy? I thought it seemed kind of sloppy, but since it was on a ball, I could understand the slight variation a bit.
