Hello Community, I have the opportunity to purchase this signed Mickey Mantle Beckett Baseball monthly, however before I make the decision, I thought I would reach out to the community as I know many of you are avid collectors of Mantle, I would appreciate any opinions at this signature upon first glance....

Looks legit to me but I am not a hand writing expert.
Successful card BST transactions with cbcnow, brogurt, gstarling, Bravesfan 007, and rajah 424.
It needs to be authenticated. There are too many Mickey Mantle fakes out there to take a chance.
Signatures can certainly vary over time and even within the same day.
But I am inclined to say no, that signature is not authentic.
Curious about the rare, mysterious and beautiful 1951 Wheaties Premium Photos?

It looks like it was very carefully drawn, not the natural flow of someone signing their own autograph.
