Jackie Robinson Signature Real?
Ok so I found a cool piece that is up for sale.
The Jackie looks good to me but some of the other players look real bad. Any advice on the Jackie? The snider and Hodges look real bad. Could they be club house or just is this piece fake period. I have included a photo from Ron Keurajian's book which matches up pretty dead on to Jackies Signature. Any advice? I want to pull the trigger.

Look at the C on Billy Cox, Carl Furillo and Roy Campy. There all the same style C. Then the D in Don Newcombe and Duke Snider look the same. Nothing looks good to me. Even the R in Preacher Roe and Pee Wee Reese look the same. The H in Hodges and Hermanski are also the same. I'm not an expert but the ones I mentioned would throw a red flag to me on the whole thing. Pretty easy to see all those were done by the same guy.

And if you look, the biggest gap is from right below reese. That is why I was wondering could it be that person originally had the first 2 sign and then either get clubhouses or sign the rest themselves not thinking it was worth money just to complete it? The Jackie looks good from what I have seen. Any experts?

Looks good in my opinion... Perhaps the rest are non malicious forgeries...

Damn that's the second time I posted something Jackie related on here and it sold before I could buy it as I was waiting for advice. Hope it's a coincidence.

The guy who signed the majority got his wife to sign the first two. I think you got lucky.

Forest for the trees. It is easy to get distracted by what we want to see versus what is actually there. The person who signed the Reese signature also signed the Newcombe and Roe. I would suggest the same person signed them all as every signature has that long downward stroke, save the Jackie "Rubinson" signature. It is not even signed Robinson. It must be his Jewish cousin.

I agree with the Robinson being good, but all others are no good.

I will readily defer to those who know these signatures. I try to view items like this with a healthy dose of skepticism.

Even the paper looked fake . It looked like it was aged by somebody . I doubt that the Jackie was real and then somebody added a bunch of fakes .

You're probably right. Why evaluate each signature when you can assume whatever you'd like. Here is another Jackie from 1955-56 period with an open u.

It looks like an old piece of paper from a school composition notebook. What probably happened was a kid or family member got the signature of Jackie and then the kid or family member added all the others.
