    you are usualy the expert on Mantles but in my opinion since I have two myself I would guess no.It has some resemlence however there is quite a difference between the ones I have seen and this one.Just a hunch.

    Tony ... Yeah, this one looks a bit different than the few that I have. I do not have any where he wrote so small ... I was wondering if that could make it look different.

    You make a good point about the small letters however there does appear to be some difference in the script.Mickeys Autograph is pretty well consistent from my past experience along with Maris.

    I own a few Mantles. As far as the technical aspects of it, there are two things I don't like about this one and only one that I do. While it isn't horrible, I wouldn't buy it.
    2.5 is pretty much my speed.

    I would buy and sell that Mantle sig all day long (if it's not pre-printed)

    Looks like a nice older example of a Mantle.
