Ty Cobb Signed check opinions

The first check is a teller's check, available at the bank to anyone who, say, had forgotten his checkbook.
It was filled out by the teller, and signed by Cobb.

That is my theory as well after seeing the inconsistencies with the 2nd check.

This is a good theory. Although the numeric amount was certainly filled in by Cobb. The little loop on the 5 in 500 is a perfect match (and likely written amount as well, IMO).

Yeah. The little loop matches. But that's all. The slant is totally different. I stand by my "theory."
