First and foremost, everyone have a Happy Thanksgiving.

I wrote Shelly in an email, although it "looks" to be good, my immediately reaction was "there is something not right about it."

Too many issues in my opinion.

This type of thread is useful and helpful to everyone.

When it comes to autographs, the learning process is a daily thing with me and it is very humbling.

I am anxious to read the PSA result on the OP's "Mantle."

I will stay with what I stated at the start. It is a good Mantle. I would not waste money sending it in to PSA.
I was surprised to hear it was a drunk mantle. I saw him fall down piss in a planted pot and get up and sign two hundred baseballs. Each one was better than the next. I only remember when he would start to scribble is when he wanted to leave or take a long break.aka get a drink.

Considering you know as much, if not more, than the shadows at PSA -- and we're a pretty anti-TPA bunch anyways -- why do you want to see what they say?

Ken, I was wondering that as well. Curiosity, perhaps?

No it was because I suggested it. I hate them just as much as he does. It was going to be used as a tie breaker. I then said no. Nothing to do with his likening them or not.

PSA is very good with Mantle, DiMaggio, etc. autographs.

They will have it in person to examine and I am very curious.

I think they will reject it.

Let's wait and see.

Default 1962 Topps signed Mickey Mantle

I haven't seen where anyone has mentioned that he made a
circle for the dot over his i. I don't recall ever seeing a Mantle autograph
with a circle for the dot over the i like Roger Maris did.
Does anyone out there have an example like this?
Thanks.......

Yes he has and I will hopefully find it for you. It could also be the pen on a card does not make a solid dot.
By the way Ken. I said this was a great thread because no one is bringing up anything but facts about the card. If you want to start a thread about what Chris thinks open a new thread.

This is a great discussion.
When Robert first posted this on SCN, my gut feeling was that it is good, but there were a few things that left me a little unsure. I also said I wasn't sure if, good or not, PSA would pass it.
Because I was aware of Chris' and Shelly's experience with Mantle, I suggested he post it over here to get some more knowledgeable advice. It has been great to see the exchange of information and opinions.
