Authenticity opinions please on this Roger Maris & Hank Aaron "autographed" card

I am potentially interested in purchasing this one but wanted to get some opinions to see if it passes muster. I ran a PSA/DNA Quick Opinion on it and it came back "Unable to render opinion" so I'll get a refund of my quick opinion fee but that doesn't help me on trying to decide if it's good or bad.

    Agreed. I wouldn't take the chance.

    Who is Rober Maris?

    They've both got some of the right elements, BUT they also
    have some "wrong" elements.

    If you can return it if it's fake, and buy it REAL cheap, I guess
    it's worth the effort.

    If I had to make a comparison-based guess, I would say both
    siggys are troublesome.

    Also, there is not much eye-appeal there.

    Aaron doesn't look good to me at all. I wouldn't buy it for free.

    The Maris looks good, but the Aaron does not. I doubt either are authentic.

    I agree with Storm, not much eye appeal on that card even if the sigs are good.

    I agree with the lack of eye appeal. Can't all much else. Sorry Mike.

    I can't put my finger on it, but something bothers me about the Aaron.

    Maris looks ok, Aaron looks secretarial. There is a Psa/Dna version of this card on e-bay at the moment, You may want to make him an offer.

    I agree its pricey, Most Maris sigs are. Couldnt hurt to make an offer on it though.

    Maris looks OK. Aaron is definitely not.

    Mike - one important thing to think about is how much the bad aaron takes away from the maybe good maris. Even if the maris is good, who wants it with a bad secretarial (at best) aaron.

    I'm not knocking aaron, but he couldn't write that clearly to save his life. His sig isn't always consistent but that one looks like it was written by a girl.

    Save your money and get a legit one.
