It's funny reading these opinions and it's ridiculously tough trying to figure out who I should defer to in these cases. Some people have been very helpful in their comments. Thanks for the input.
But when someone with what appears to be a lot of self-righteousness declares, "Willie never signed like that" when it's clear as day--as shown on his 1967 card--that he DID sign like that, I have to think that maybe I'm looking in the wrong place for objective opinions on these signatures. Oh well.

Of the ones posted, I agree about wife-signed for the '72, both '73s and the '74 WS....the '64, '65 and '67 I'm not so sure of...they don't look the like the wife-signed versions I've seen before. Not saying they are good, but they are certainly of a different hand. And of the three, I think the '67 has the best chance of being even remotely real. Then again, what do I know...

I guess a good question would be did Mays ever verifiably sign TTM?

an older mays sig where he signed more careful, and which looks a little more like the wife signed would be signed in regular ink, not like these.

Darren, what's with the insult? Please tell all of us here your knowledge of Willie Mays autographs.

Maybe you are looking in the wrong place, Darren. Sounds like you require the expertise of Chris Morales or Ted Taylor.

It wasn't meant to be an insult. When I reread my post, though, I guess i could see how it was taken that way. Sorry about that. I'll take a deep breath and decide on my own what replies I should give greater weight to.
