Need a little help from the pros! I can spot a fake jordan from a mile away, but not certain on vintage. Looking to possibly pick-up this Mantle....what are the tell-tale signs I should be on the lookout for? Thanks in advance!

If it is more than the cost of the screw down you might want to pass on this purchase.

I hate giving advice to new guys as I can't help but think sometimes they are just scammers/card doctors just looking for advice on how to better their fakes.
Not saying you're one, OP, but this happens a lot on here, imo, as once advice is given as to what is all wrong, they are never heard from again. If you really want to know, there is lots of info out there on what makes a fake Mantle different than a real one. Just google it.

I don’t think I have ever opined on one of these, but that one doesn’t look right at all. ETA, it has the same look as those T206 Ty Cobb counterfeits/reprints.

Start here, although you don't really even need to get this far because the color and whole look of it is so wrong.
