I'm not trying to jump on anyone with this next comment, but I'm sure there are several people thinking this: We've all heard stories about autographs that were authenticated years ago by PSA and Spence that now, if resubmitted, do not pass. As of 2002 (per the certs from Richard Simon in this thread) Richard believed that those Mantle photos were legit. That's 7 years after Mantle died and I find it curious that there would be that much more that an expert could learn at that point. I guess what I'm getting at is, what the heck is the point of getting something authenticated if the people authenticating them change their opinion years later?
