Little Help on this Clemente autograph

Mphilking

Hello,
I'm considering buying this autograph of Roberto Clemente. I think it's good, but would love those with more expertise than I to give me their opinion.
Someone took a pencil over it after Roberto signed the card.
Thanks!
MERRY CHRISTMAS

Why isn't it in a PSA/DNA or similar slab? That would be my question.

Maybe you could get a quick opinion?


I'm sure someone here has the expertise (I don't) hopefully

they will have good news.

Looks traced over to me.

Traced at best, unless it was almost free I wouldn't touch it. I also wouldn't touch it to keep, only if I thought I could flip it. Not very attractive at all.

Agree...stay away

The tracing ruined the signature completely IMO, So (to me) It wouldnt matter if it WAS authentic.

I would say it's the other way around. he probably signed it in pencil and was traced over in ink later

traced over but with the pen, pretty terrible imo

My thoughts exactly.

That card will never make it in a slab, but if it is cheap enough, it would be a nice addition to a collection.
