Sometime ago a few of the members here asked for examples of a Phil Dorsey signed Roberto Clemente.
I keep my exemplars to myself, but the one below I can show.
It is presently on the Mears Auction site and it is a Phil Dorsey signed Roberto Clemente.

dumb question Chris, but does JSA know bout this guy and are just not too bright? or they don't care or both?

Not a dumb question, Scott.
I don't think JSA examined that "Clemente."
It doesn't come with a full JSA COA; just an "auction letter."

How do they issue an auction letter on a Clemente autograph?
Doesn't a Clemente autograph deserve a full examination?

Has anyone shared with MEARS that they are auctioning a Phil Dorsey autograph?

I am not good with Clemente and generally rely on a few friends who are heavy Clemente collectors, but weren't many of these Dorsey's fully authenticated by the big two before it was discovered these were done by Dorsey? I do not know when this info became largely known, but maybe someone else could expand on this. Jason

I went back to the auction and the description now reads "Secretarial signature."

Is it an authentic Roberto Clemente or a Phil Dorsey?
Would you please post a Phil Dorsey Roberto Clemente signature image for comparison?
