  • Did you get them yourself?

    I will post which, if any, I obtained in person after I get some opinions.

    The Aaron is black sharpie on a NL ball. The Mantle and Williams are in blue ball point on AL balls.

  • I couldn't even get it to make sense in my own head never mind.

    I don't like the Mantle, questionable on the Williams (it looks a little shaky), and have no idea about the Aaron.


    2.5 is pretty much my speed.

    The Ted looks exactly like the one I have that I got in person. The first two I have no opinion.

    I agree that the Ted seems to have all of the correct technical aspects, but the "Wil" in Williams looks a little off and not as fluid as any of the Teds I've owned.

  • I say no, no, no
  • ...so did Amy Winehouse
    I NEED HANKS!!!
  • I'd pass on all three
  • daddymcdaddymc Posts: 3,080 ✭✭✭
    My thoughts are no, no, maybe...and a maybe on a Williams is a pass IMO.

    I don't like any of the three. There are aspects of each signature that just don't match up right with the known authentic one's I've seen.

    SO the Aaron I got in person when I was about 13 or 14 years old when he came to Jacksonville (1983-84). The Mantle and Williams I got at the same time (about 1989-90) from mty neighborhood card store. They were not that much back then, so I took a chance. I dont have any intention on selling them, but have wanted to send them in to PSA for some time now.

    I got Aaron again at a show several years later in a photo book and his signature looked completely different.

    Thanks for all the posts.

  • before sending in to psa/dna put them on ebay and do a quick opinion from psa/dna. it's $8 and if they are not legit can save you $100 or so on each. if legit you get the $8 credit when sent in for grading.
