Mantle Autograph Help

I am trying to help my little cousin out. She "inherited" this from an ex-boyfriend who moved out. Does it have any value or is it some mass produced fake kind of deal? I can't find one like it on Ebay. I apologize for the poor photo. It looks like she did on her camera phone. Appreciate the help.

    Here you go!

    Edited to add: I saw the notary's name (Kathleen Hampton, who managed the office for Mantle’s attorney Roy True ) and I remembered that she notarized many Mantle autos over the years.
    STAY HEALTHY!

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

    I own a couple of Mantle autos, and that one looks good to me.
    2.5 is pretty much my speed.

    Why doesn't she return it to the rightful owner who forgot while probably trying to get away from her as fast as possible?

    Do you have bitter beer face on as you spit your bitter words? I am sorry you have trouble with the ladies.

    She actually happens to be an extremely attractive, hard working and intelligent young lady. They dated two years and had different plans for life; hers included transfering to a UC school this coming fall and his didn't involve formal education.

    Also, you certainly do not know the particulars of her aquiring the items other than my suggesting she "inherited" them. There are a lot of possibilities so it's hard for me to imagine how you KNOW who the rightful owner is.

    Keep on hating if it makes you feel good though.

    I would agree with the others, It has all the right qualities you want to see in the nice Mantle sig.

    Mantle was a real pro when it came to signing for money. He would always take his time and give a simply gorgeous signature at shows he did.

    One can usually spot a really minor flaw that tips off the Greg Marino forgeries.

    This one's a beaut though, a real 10.

    Did you notice in your link the description states:


    shows Mickey Mantle with the Notary Republic: Kathleen Hampton.
    Certification: Notary Republic: Kathleen Hampton


    'Notary Republic' lol


    Nice item Larry.
