Jackie in Sharpie??
 
1 Attachment(s)
Has anyone ever seen a real one? Jackie died in '71 but the Sharpie was invented in '64.

Both the Waner and Robinson are fake. I can't see what the others are but I'm sure those will be fake as well

While those autographs are bad, are there authentic Jackie Robinson signatures done in Sharpie? I seem to recall the pens were invented in the 1960s. I used them exclusively when I went autograph hunting in the mid-1970s. Jackie died in '72.

Yes it’s true Sharpies and Flair pens were available in the early 1970s and many players did use them including many HOfers ; however, in my years of collecting I have never seen an authentic Jackie Robinson in any felt tip medium , I’m not saying they don’t exist but again I’ve never seen an authentic one .
