Mickey Mantle Vintage autograph opinion
Hello,
While looking at the current Coach's Corner auction items, I noticed that item #273 is listed as a "1965 Mickey Mantle Autographed/Personalized Baseball." The signature is VERY different than any other Mantle autographs I have seen. I'm not saying it is fake, but is it really an authentic "vintage" Mantle signature as advertised? Thanks!

I wouldn't touch that ball. It is probably a clubhouse ball signed by a Yankees staff member. It also looks traced over.

That looks terrible. It looks to be traced over to me also.

Nope. That is not his original signature. It is either traced over or it has been forged very slowly.

This looks like the work of an 8 year old. And bad work, at that!
