1960 Topps Mantle Signed "Rivals" Authenticity Opinion
 

I have a 1960 Topps Yankees autographed team set. I've never felt a burning desire to pick up a signed Mantle/Boyer card for the set, but when a low condition card came up for sale on eBay, I figured I'd take a chance. Unfortunately this is the best photo I have for now, but how does this Mantle look? Thanks all.

Well I just got the card in and was hoping to still solicit an opinion or 2 from the experts. The signature is light, and it's signed in pencil. However, I tried to play with the contrast a bit.

I would not classify myself as an expert on Mantle, but I think I have a decent eye for the signature.

That said, I have doubts about this. Odd right slant and a number of formation issues. Sorry.

nope.:(
