I don't like it... bet the autograph "gurus" are skeptical as well. I would hold off on this deal until you hear from a few others on this one.

What type of Ball is it on, and is there an accompanying letter (or documentation?)

I am not an authenticator but have been lucky enough to own about 30 authentic Maris autographs including 12 signed photos aquired in the 1970's in one collection. I do not like it either and would not purchase it. Not only that, but the likelyhood of Maris signing a Bobby Brown ball is astronimically small. I think the window would only be like 6 months or so and he was dying of cancer during that time.
