Mantle help...

Yes, this "card" is hideous, but is the sig at least real? May be interested and get a good custom guy to use the cut. Thanks in advance!

No, it isn't.

1 vote for no. Thank you.

Don't like it.

The first M is what made me wonder. The hiccup in it looks drawn.

First "M" was what made me lean towards a no.

This must be from the new Legendary "Rips" collection.

no need to lean anywhere...the signature is a piece of S*** easy to spot Florida FORGERY. No more voting needed:rolleyes::eek::D:D

I posted a link this morning to the same auction over in the post-war section. I added a picture of the other custom they made with all the Benjamins laying around. Figured it would give people a good laugh.

Dang that thing is ugly, both in the execution of the custom "cut" and the obvious autograph forgery. No wonder Probstein took it down, and I don't happen to believe that this auto ever had a JSA cert as the auction claimed without proof (although anything is possible).
