    That looks weird, almost like it was signed in photoshop! Anyone else think that blue looks weird?

    Wow, I'm no expert regarding on-card sigs, but is there ANY way a signature on that card have such perfect edges without ANY bleed???

    Maybe they used a blue lumicolor or something.
    I think the signature looks pretty good (authentic). But I'm far from an expert.

    Looks like a paint pen used for signing helmets and some jerseys, and I think the signature is authentic.

    It may be authentic, but I thought the same thing.

    The pen is a blue decocolor paint marker.

    Im not so Sure the Auto is Authentic.

    I own two Autographed Unitas items, the Signed Litho Ive had for 20+ years, The 72 Topps Card was In Person so I know its legit.
    Both have a distinct downward curve on the top right of the "J" and both have a distinct backward curve on the "S" in Unitas, that comes back and crosses the "T"
    The "U" with the outward hook is also not consistant. People can sign their name different from time to time, but something seems awful fishy here to me.


    Im no expert myself, but both these distinct features seem to be lacking on the 57 Rookie card.

    The Unitas auto I got in person in '65 looks nothing like the auto in the original post.

    I'm not a fan of that auto either. It doesn't match up to the examples I have on hand.

    Skip this idiot, he can't even decide if he wants to be paid in three or five days! Isn't this a violation of eBay's rules? Other than "buy it now" with immediate payment required, don't you have 7 days to pay? I would NEVER buy from a seller that listed conflicting requirements on payment.

    I can just see the thread now "Seller won't take card back" said five days, three days, blah blah blah.

    STAY AWAY!

    Happy New Year...................even to the morons.

    Blue Paint Pen. I use them at work.

    I do not know Unitas signature. But the writing tool is not a good one for trading cards.
