I'm not sure about the first Mantle, but the other four, IMHO, are all bad.
On second thought, I also don't like the first Mantle. It just looks off to me. Steve

The first Mantle is definitely authentic.

Agree but the rest of that ball is crap.

It's possible that for the Mantle Maris ball, someone brought a forged Maris signed ball to a show and added an authentic Mantle. Maybe didn't know the Maris was bad.
The second ball with Joe D, Williams and Mantle is all bad.

Is this one ball or two? I thought the 'bad' DiMaggio was opposite the 'good' Mantle on the same piece of leather. If there's nothing opposite the Mantle, one could remove the Maris panel and have the ball restitched.

Took a closer look and from the stampings I can see that they are different balls.

The second ball is bad. Dimaggio and Williams look very slowly drawn and stretched out.

Good enough guys. I threw out the bad one and sold the one with the Maris to a board member who will display it as a Mantle only.
Thanks for all the help, I appreciate it.
