Newbie needs opinion on Koufax

[dogmechanic]

Got this jersey over 10 years ago. One thing I like about this board is that I will get an honest opinion. I know Sandy took real pride in doing jerseys. Stretched them out and did a good job

I would like more photos of the replica jersey that was signed. Tagging of the jersey, and a photo of the sig from further back.
Thanks!

Would be very hard to say if it is real or not. The reason is there is to much bleeding in the Jersey.

Will get some more pics. Jersey is M&N wool jersey. Hard to sign these and not bleed a little. Person on board told me Joe D really had a hard time signing wool jersey because of bleeding etc. They are not easy to sign as the jerseys of today are. I have quite of few of the old M&N jerseys

Another pic I had ,.Will get other pics later

I'm definitely not an expert, but I am concerned about the S in the auto, it doesn't show the flair I have seen in later Koufax autos. Another thing, when you look at UDA auto jerseys, the F and the A are not connected.

Examples:
Example One

Example Two

Have 2 other Koufax autos and the f and a are joined .Also Mr. Keurajian does not mention it in his book. I downloaded some more pictures. I thank you for your help and I looked at the Upper Deck sigs and you are right. I looked on eBay and some PSA balls do and some don't. Anyway more pictures and hope it is good. appreciate all your help

I most assuredly do not believe this is real. I'm sorry...
There are several inconsistencies in this autograph, none the least of which is the "K" in Koufax.

I have to agree Scott. For comparison, here is one (not mine) that was just recently signed in AZ at Dodgers Spring Training. This is in-person, in a crowd, but it is 100% genuine.

Nice, Derek!
