I hope the experts here are not too tired of these. I would appreciate your opinions.
I usually stay away from autographs because I just don't know enough, and like many of us, I have been burned before.
But I just picked up a Mickey Mantle signed photo. I bought it because I liked the photo and had never seen this image before,
and I liked the price regardless of whether the signature was authentic.
But, of course, I am curious about what the experts here think.
Here's an image of the framed (home-made frame) 16 x 20 photo on which this signature appears.
Obviously 1951 because of the shoulder patch, but I'm not sure of the stadium. I was told that it was spring training, which for
the Yankees in 1951 was in Phoenix, AZ.
