Mantle Help

[cottnat]

I know a handful of you are experts on Mantle signature. I think this one is good, but being that he is forged so often, I figured I would consult you all. I can tell its not the terrible banana looking fake. Thanks in advance.

Looks pretty, crisp and smooth. I think it's good.

I think good.

Part of my worry is that the photo is black and white, with the yankees logo being the only thing in color (the red and blue in the top hat). That type of editing of photos seems to be much more recent than dating back to 1995...although I guess its not impossible as I believe photo shop dates back to 1990 or so?

You can't ask for better, more pictures or see it in person before purchase? Reliable seller? Someone you've done business with before?

Seeing in person wouldnt make a difference for me I guess because I am far from an expert...here is the picture in full. No prior business dealings with this person.

Still looks like a good sig.

That is quite a common photo that Mantle signed, signature looks good.
