Calling all NET experts. Are these Real?
 

I can acquire a huge sports collection, but have my doubts.

I am including photos by # so help post replies by #'s.

For example Photo #3 is good etc.

Thanks so much.

Regarding the 2 Mantles the photo is horrible and the ball is 1000% good

#8 the Thomson/ Branca photo is fine... pretty common and can be had for less than $35

Thanks guys! So far the Mantle Ball and that Branca Thompson Photo are good.

First Mantle is bad.

Any more opinions?

Thanks in advance.

# 6 (Rick Wise) is fine

6,8,10 and 16 are good for sure.

Which ones do you think are good?

The only thing that I was really confident in was he mantle ball. I figured the branch was too cheap to forge so that too. The Seaver also looked good but aside from that, toss ups to me. I'm not versed in anyone other than jackie.

Many fakes IMO.

Mantle, DiMaggio, Yankee jersey, Seaver all bad.

Not confident in Thompson Branca either. Looks drawn and both sigs are not usually same size.

Don't know others well enough to comment.

Yikes!!!

The Yankees jersey is laughably bad

the griffeys also look very labored and heavy handed, he's usually very light and fast on balls.

So is the conclusion that the Mantle ball is good? Seems off IMHO.

That's a seriously bad Mariano Rivera fake on the jersey. Eeek.

I don't see anything glaringly wrong with it, but I wouldn't commit either way given the bad angle of the photo.

Frankly, whoever this junk belongs to didn't know what he was doing and bought from mostly bad sources. I wouldn't touch any of it.

I, too, would like to see a more direct photo of the Mantle ball.

It looks like it is all in a business from the surroundings in the pictures. Stephen are these pictures from inside Top Tier Collectibles?

I don't have a store so no. These photos were taken by me at their house when I met them. I'll get better pics of the ball, butbthese collection seems like a headache with mostly bad stuff so I'm gonna pass. Some Steiner stuff though but most inverted.

If there are several bad items in a group just stay away. Do yourself a favor.

I bekieve the Cito Gaston, Frank Thomas and Fred McGriff balls are good.

I like the following baseballs: Fred McGriff, Red Schoendienst, Steve Carlton, Willie Stargell, Bob Feller, Goose Gossage, Jim Palmer, Bobby Thomson, Lou Boudreau, Steve Sax, Wally Joyner, Pete Rose, Jeff Reardon, Duke Snider, Denny McLain, Don Larsen, Mel Stottlemyere, Ryne Duren, Gaylord Perry, and Rollie Fingers. The others I don't know well enough or don't feel confident rendering an opinion.

Interesting, I thought the McGriff looked very slow and sloppy, but I'm nowhere an expert on him.

I'd buy the Wynn ball.

I am going to say that the mantle is good. I am looking forward to hearing from
ZIP Chris and Fud.:):):):):):)

Yes the Mantle is good.

You guys are great. So yankee jersey is definitely bad and mantle photo. Anything else stand out?

The DiMaggio is a clunker (borrowed from Mr. Zipper) also.

Looks like a mixed bunch - Feller, Boudreau and Kiner look good as does the Mantle ball...

Now I can sleep:):):)

:eek:
