Was there any signed baseballs sold at candlestick park?
I'm sure they sold souvenir baseballs with stamped signatures. I don't know if they sold authentic hand signed baseballs towards the later days that the Stadium was open. If the baseball was bought before the 1990's chances are greater that it is a souvenir stamped baseball. Ballparks have only recently started to sell authentic hand signed baseballs in souvenirs shops. With a stamped signature baseball the ink would be too consistent. When you sign your name, you use different angles, and pressure as you sign. This is more evident when signing with sharpie. Some parts of the signature will be darker, or lighter depending on the pressure you put on the pen, or sharpie. With a stamped signature it is usually all the same density, and thickness. When you cross a "T", or at the end of your signature you might tail off as you come off the page. A stamped signature might start, and end with no variation at all.

Why do the size and shape of a baseball field vary from stadium to stadium?
There originally was no regulations for dimensions for stadiums and since there used to be no commissioner of baseball nobody made any rules. So by the time there was a commissioner all the stadiums were already built and he probably didn't want to go through all the trouble of rebuilding all the stadiums since, it wasn't that big of a deal.

Other facsimile (stamped) baseballs could be premiums that were given away with baseball gloves, or made available through special offers. These baseball will be worth more especially if it is accompanied with the original offer or advertising.
