Default Help with this signed ball.

So I was doing some spring cleaning around my house when I stumbled across this. I vaguely remember getting it in a collection I bought out year back. It did not come with any coa so I never did anything with it.

I think I might want to get in coa'd now but wanted to get some insight on a identifying the signatures, as well as if they look legit, and would it be something getting certified.

I can identify some signatures but not all of them

Not sure on either of these ones...



Pic 4:

Reggie Jackson
Rusty Staub?




Pic 5:
Top signature way too faded
Johnny Bench

Based on the condition of the baseball and signatures, it's probably not worth spending $150+ to get this authenticated. The signatures also look a little strange to me, they sort of look like stamped signatures to me and not actual autographs. My first thought was stamped souvenir ball, but those usually have many more signatures. So not completely sure what's going on here.

Yeah they all look like they're "signed" in a similar style and font.

I’m no expert but I’ve never seen a Reggie Jackson or Johnny Bench autograph that looks like those.

Ball looks like it went through WW3. Instincts scream fake.

Appreciate thee insight, i was looking at like pictures of early Johnny Bench signatures and it looked a little right but wasn't sure on the

quiet the random buffet of players to be honest

so weird for these to have such a random array of players to have stamped on a ball, especially to be mass produced?
