First thing I would do is post it in the autograph forum for people to view and offer their opinion on it. There are many people here who are better at opining on auto than any TPA.
I disagree with Dale in that, if the consensus is that it is real, you might very well get offers from members here that would be very strong if it a nice item. Most here are not scared off of items not having paperwork, so it could be a very easy deal for your friend.
