No need to pay the annual fee for the safe deposit box. It's fake.

I think about 99% of the time when people ask if a signature is real they are told its fake from net 54 members..

Jake,
Didn't we go through this before with you? You made the same comment around 6mo ago, if I remember correctly.
People on Net54 say stuff is fake a lot, because A LOT of stuff being sold is FAKE.

Now, my opinion of this auto is that I have none. It's is very difficult to read fully, but does have many of things I might expect to see in a late 50's Mantle.
Because the signature is hard to read in your photo, I don't feel confident enough to give a firm yes or no.

Here are 2 instances where you have come on the autograph side and injected the same snide comment. Considering that the majority of your posts are in card related threads, it suggests you collect cards mostly. Perhaps instead of coming over here to spout the same inane drivel, you should stick to what you know and collect. I don't know much about cards or collect cards significantly, so when I go over and read threads I don't inject smart a$$ ridiculous comments that are not only untrue, but also not helpful to the original poster in any way.

He certainly sounds to me like someone with "autograph envy."

Correct. And when people post an item for opinions, it often means it is unknown or suspect to begin with... so that further skews the results to likely fake.

some of the new posters don't know that most people say autographs are fake which they may want to consider. when they are making their own decsion...and they don't have the time to look at old posts....

I guess what I said happens appears to occur even more than I realized...I did see someone agree that a gwynn was real though....anyway wasn't making a snide remark just letting the poster know what reactions are usually given....

im sure people say 'buy the card not the holder' more than once as well I guess they not allowed to say that either ever again..
