Default Possible fake Lefty O'Doul autograph

Posted By: Rhys

Since you guys were nice and eluded to the fact that I know O'Doul's signature pretty well, I have scanned what is a good progression of his signature.

The top autograph is an O'Doul signature signed about 1928 and as far as I know, is the earliest O'Doul signature signed "Lefty" known to exist. Notice the absence of quotation marks.

The bottom autograph was signed in the late 1960's very shortly before his death and is very consistant with other later signatures.

These (2) autographs look somewhat different but are clearly consistant for being signed 40 years apart. I do not want to venture a guess on the authenticity of the item in question, but I will say that the seller has bought several items from me in the past and seems like a very honest and reputable seller.
