This is a DISASTER

It definitely looks funky but I would say it's probably authentic.

Why do you say that?

The Mantle the OP posted is definitely authentic.

Chris:

How is this different from any of the Florida forgeries that you post on a regular basis?

It's not even close to a "Florida" forgery, John.

Just think all the hundreds of variations of Mickey Mantle's autograph.

That's why I depend and have so much confidence in my "eye."

Chris, just wondering, because I said initially I did not like it, but would love to be convinced what exactly your eye says... Later in life sig? Drunk? Rushed? Or just in your mind an acceptable common variation?

Your eye is fantastic. Why dont you say the flow is perfect. The slant on tle is perfect with no hesitation. The whole autograph is perfect not slow no hesitations and is like the tpa"s would say/ Pressure, flow and it is consistent with other signatures
Some times people just sign sloppy but there are certain things you can see.
Stop with your eye. It is your opinion that it is good. Just like the Babe Ruth ticket that you said was bad.
You said then that it was bad and I am still waiting for that you can prove it.
Tell people why you like or do like something.
You are my friend but please stop with eye.
