Here is the Connie Mack signatures from both programs that were certed by psa and jsa. Notice how the ink signature on the 1939 program that featured the 3 R Larry Lajoie takes on a slant to the right, while the pencil signature on the 1939 induction day HOF program that is currently on its 2nd go round at Heritage as we speak stands upright, straight as an arrow, no slant.

The NN's in Connie slant to the right in the ink signature, while they don't seem to slant at all in the pencil signature. The E in Connie slants forward on the ink signature, and lays back on the pencil signature. Wow! That's quite a contrast and quite embarrassing.

Both signatures supposed to be signed on the same day back in 1939, and psa and jsa like them both. I don't like them, they don't match and they are just a couple more signatures that are contrived and dubious on this hit parade of autographs that come up snake eyes. How can they both be real as PSA and JSA claim? What exemplars were used.

Were any exemplars used?

Were any good exemplars used? How were the principles of handwriting analysis used on these pieces?

The pencil signature is especially childish and ridiculous. How did either of thsee get a coveted cert?

Give me your thoughts, and if you like JSA and PSA and still think they do a great job, especially on vintage baseball and sports, please come on here let your voice be heard.
