You're opinions are welcome. I have had these all in my collection since 1990 and before.

Sean1125 · October 22, 2011 10:43PM

Did you get them yourself?

CopperJJ · October 22, 2011 11:07PM

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.

Sean1125 · October 22, 2011 11:17PM

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

vladguerrero · October 22, 2011 11:59PM

yes, no, no

scmavl · October 23, 2011 12:08AM

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

dennis07 · October 23, 2011 12:08AM

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

scmavl · October 23, 2011 12:16AM

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.

CARDSANDCOINS · October 23, 2011 12:19AM

I say no, no, no

HAMMERFAN44 · October 23, 2011 12:30AM

...so did Amy Winehouse

csmtampa · October 23, 2011 1:40AM

I'd pass on all three

daddymc · October 23, 2011 2:28AM

My thoughts are no, no, maybe...and a maybe on a Williams is a pass IMO.

CopperJJ · October 23, 2011 5:40AM

Thanks for the opinions so far. More would be appreciated.

SDSportsFan · October 23, 2011 7:12AM

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.

I know this one is not fake

CopperJJ · October 23, 2011 10:25AM

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.
