Thanks for your opinion Brendan. I guess I'll let the cat out of the bag. These items are being offered at an estate sale. If you happen to be in the area maybe worth dropping by. Here's the info:

Sale Location:5 Arrowhead Ln
Rolling Hills Estates, CA 90274

Sale Dates and Times:
Thursday Sep 28, 9:00 am to 3:00 pm
Friday Sep 29, 9:00 am to 3:00 pm
Saturday Sep 30, 8:00 am to 12:00 pm

They have multiple items "authenticated" by Ken Golden at Scoreboard. Are these all bad? Here's the web address if you want to look at the pictures.

I'll post a few for those that can't get to the link or if it disappears. I notice the Ruth ball seems to be gone from the listing. Maybe if some of it is good, someone can go cherry pick the good stuff.

That's not an opinion. It's a fact.

That's what I meant! What about this other stuff they have? Is any of it real, or did this guy only collect fakes?

Joe D looks good to me as does the Ryan, the Mantle looks fishy (to be honest all Mantles look fishy to me,I'm paranoid) and I don't know Griffey Jr well enough to comment.

I'd pass on the Mantle. That's a phony Scoreboard COA attached with it. If the COA was real I'd scrutinize the ball. No need if the COA is bad.

On Goldin/Scoreboard COA's what do we look for other than obviously copies that are off center, blotchy etc?

Is it the way the verbiage is printed? Someone said the DiMaggio is good on this post but the Mantle based on the cert may not be. Looks like COA's verbiage was organized differently?

Street address on one and not the other? Spacing of paragraph?

Thanks guys!

The Mantle is a forgery.

As for the DiMaggio, it could be authentic, but I need to see the full sig.
