Roger Maris signed card opinion
An Old-time collector friend of mine sent me a picture of this card he dug out of his collection, wondering if he should spring for authentication. He says he's had it in his collection since the 1980's, but I was setting up at shows in the late 80's, and there were plenty of fakes floating around then to.
I told him I didn't like it and probably shouldn't waste his money...but not being an expert in baseball auto's, I'd pass it by some others.
Sigs I've seen, Roger had a much cleaner autograph. It's possible he had a problem with the pen, and that's why the "R", is so sloppy, but even if it's good, I'd have a hard time thinking an authenticator would like it.
Thanks in advance for any opinions. Sorry, the cell phone picture he sent me isn't great.
