Assess everything, not just a picture on a computer screen...and trust your gut more than anyone else's.

And of course...Use your eyes to view the autograph. That helps immensely.
your feelings should be that 90% of Mantle's autographs are forgeries PERIOD, and hence are very easy to spot at just one glance by someone with a just a little knowledge. Some forgeries are better than others, but this one is putrid, so stop it already. My gut KNOWS this is a forgery, don't need to trust anything but my eyes. It's so easy to tell that if you're still arguing about the way it's done after 4 days you should shave your head and start a rock pile... In good fun of course
