The autograph appears exactly the same as the one at the top of the thread. When superimposed. Seriously doubt the 2nd card itself is the real deal either.

They’re just counterfeits that people are aging to fool buyers

Another common one they do it to is 1961 Mantles

Someone posted one here a few months ago and I pointed it out

Lots of these on Etsy

Nor would Ruth use the 2nd version of the “e” like that in Sincerely…. Typically (the 3 of them as a group in a row) the “ere” almost always take on the same general shape as each other.

I contacted the seller, sent him multiple pictures of the same card to show him the card is a reprint/stamped signature. Seller ignores me. I notify ebay and provide them the link to etsy to show them just how many identical cards there are, and ebay does nothing. Seller ends auction, relist with low price, no reserve, and the bids he received look like shill bids (just my opinion). I notify ebay again, and again they do nothing. This one is a no brainer.

Thanks for your comments and help on this one guys!

There are a ton of fake "signed" Gretzky RCs flooding Canada lately. All exactly the same, and all signed in a spot and at an angle that Wayne himself has never employed. It's quite annoying.

eBay finally came through and ended the auction. Bid was over $500 with two days left.
