Looks legit to me but I am not a hand writing expert.

Successful coin BST transactions with Gerard and segoja.

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.

All glory is fleeting.

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.

Who is the Golf Card Guy?
