Help on Mantle autographed ball
 

Bought this as part of a collection 20 or so years ago. Any and all opinions appreciated.

There are many people on here much better at this than I am, but it suuuurrreee looks slowly drawn! Don't think Mantle ever was that shaky

Very poor fake, sorry

Very very very bad

Thanks for the opinions. Little harm done, as I bought it with a collection years ago. I'm out very little. I wish I understood more about the "banana Mantles." To me, even legitimate ones look like they have "bananas."

That's the beauty of it. When you have seen enough of them, the fakes pop like this one in a millisecond.
