Default Let's just assume . . .
.

. . . that the ball was taken, and replacement put in it's place. Perhaps our ball guys could identify the appropriate era that the replacement ball was manufactured in. Further assuming the thief is not too sharp, it's possible the replacement ball was manufactured after 1948. Perhaps better photographs of the ball now in hand might lead to snaring a thief. Just a thought.

She would have had to scrub the hell out of that ball to get a sig off.
Someone stole that ball.

Switching balls makes the most sense. I really can't see anyone dumb enough to take a signed ball out of a display and trying to erase a signature. Just doesn't make any sense at all.

Maybe it came from Roaches and she was so outraged by the fake that she wanted to destroy it
