last bit of help - 500 home run signed photo & Mantle card
 

Two last items I'm having a little trouble with.

1) I have the LARGE 500 home run hitter's piece (to be listed eventually - I've listed 300+ items already) as well as this signed photo. It all looks right to me but I'm no expert and some of you'se guys clearly are. Someone must know something about the signing of these things. I haven't been able to find any information about the how why and when of the signing and the only ones I can find are the large ones for which there's a pretty big historical record.

2) Mantle signed reprint card - obviously I'm questioning the tilt on the last three letters - an anomaly to be sure HOWEVER the context of this card and the signing suggests it is real - is it possible he just angled - whooped when he should have swooped - possibly tired or distracted when signing???

thanks to anyone that takes the time to respond. I just don't want to list anything even questionable if possible. Hobby seems to be filled with enough crap......
