Ok Dale, I blew it up to different levels and snipped it so you can see what I'm seeing when it's magnified. It starts off with a regular card magnified to 200%. Then your card at 200%, then 300%, then 400%. You can clearly still set remnants of the "t" at the end of his name as well as other parts when compared to the regular example.

Al,
I do not see any evidence of the sig being erased. Z |

I don't know. But the name box's left border (middle), bottom border (left middle) and the letters H and A (bottom portion) are not completely black. If somebody told me a signature was there and then erased, those areas would support their case (IMO).

I can, now, clearly make out the "T", especially at the end of his name as you mention. I assume either the TPG's missed it or the "A", authentic is for the signature only? I Googled the crap out of NNOF 52 Topps and could find no other info on them anywhere so it likely stands that this card's signature was erased/removed as has been previously suggested.

I also believe the name was removed. I think back in the early days, this must have been common....as collectors tried to obtain autographs in the "blank" space and they deliberately erased the mechanical autos.
This card was purchased with other '52 autographed cards, 1 of which was clearly erased. The others are very difficult to detect. There must be more NNOF cards in existence....just wonder where they are.... Z |

Zach - There are MANY cards out there with the names erased. I think at one point I probably had over 30-40 of them. One collection I bought - the guy erased every single name - probably with the intent of getting the real autograph.
If you look long enough - you will find many more of these. (Unless I tossed mine in a bin somewhere and forgot them - I'm pretty sure I sold them and put them back in the market place). Cheers, Patrick
