Mantle & DiMaggio

Any chance either one of these are good. Thanks you for any help

No on the Mantle. I don't know enough about DiMaggio sigs to make a determination on that one.

isaac2004 09-07-2012 08:13 AM

I would say no on the Mantle

The Dimaggio looks like alot of what I see on ebay with JSA/PSA, but I am not an expert (I have one from the early 80s that my looks nothing like this however and enough people have looked at mine for me to believe its authentic)

Thanks for the thoughts guys,

Thanks shelly, they are being sold as a lot so I think I'll pass on the bidding.
Anyone know if these look good or clubhouse.

I'm going to go against the grain here and state that I think the Mantle is okay as is the Joe D. :)

It appears he got a bit of a rough start on the first M, but after that the signature looks fine to me. Some times there are "hiccups" and not every letter in every signature is textbook perfect.

I hate to disagree with my good friend Shelly, but I believe that Mantle is authentic.

What I would like is better picture showing the mickey and then the mantle.I will stand by what I said until he can show a better picture. I am willing to admit I am wrong but not without a better shot. The angle is what made me feel it is not real.That is why a quick opinion is exactly that a quick opinion.

thetruthisoutthere 09-07-2012 07:44 PM

Can you post a link to where it's being sold?

yanks12025 09-07-2012 07:49 PM

Chris,
The auction listing doesn't show the photos. I had to email them for the photos, but these were the best that they gave. I just looked and noticed that I accidentally deleted the rest from my email. Sorry guys

Not a big deal. Just curious. Both are authentic (Sorry, Shelly)...:)

Both look good
 
They both look good on a PC, whats more I would bet they were purchased at one point from QVC under the original SB contract, due to the style of the holder from what i can see. Looks like what QVC required to be special ordered for them (they had their own holder)

I will surrender to my man Chris. I just did not like the e to the y looked to straight and the first m look like either it was slow or the pen was missing ink.:mad:

novakjr 09-08-2012 08:56 AM

I'm right there with ya on Mantle, shelly. The Y threw me for a big loop.. But there were some things that I did like about the signature as well.

Fuddjcal 09-08-2012 10:02 AM

I also think the Mantle may be good, rather than a very good forgery, but l didn't really want to say yes or no with out seeing a better pic. That's why I didn't comment sooner. I'd like a better shot of the "Mic" and the "tle". but everything else looks good to me.

The Dimaggio has attributes I like as well

When I have a question about a particular autograph, Shelly is my go-to guy.
