Mickey Mantle opinion

Its a Mickey Mantle Claridge card

Got a "likely genuine" quick opinion on Beckett. Took a chance on it. prob send in and hope for full authentication soon

Not worth paying for the full LOA IMHO. This is one of the most readily available, least valuable items out there signed by Mantle. LOA cost really digs into the small profit margin. Not really sure on pricing regarding having this slabbed (shows you how much I follow that stuff anymore!), but still, I'd say your best bet would be to list quickly with the Beckett quick opinion alongside.

Did not trust me?

I'm by no means an expert on Mantle's signature, but in looking at this example, can someone explain to me why there are 2 change of directions in the "e" in Mickey? Doesn't that call into question whether it is a rushed or flowing signature?

It is a sloppy signature.

Shelly. I do trust you sir. This was just in case I sell.

All in fun. It is really a shame that you have to pay so you can sell it.
