Default My 2 Mays

Hey All,

I have had 2 Willie Mays for a bit now and am looking to downsize my collection. Obviously, if one isn't real, it has to go. Can I get some advice on these 2 sigs?

Thanks

I know nothing about Mays' signature, but I can tell you this. Those two were not written by the same person.

its possible both are fake. I have had them for awhile and just figured one was a sloppy version of the other.

So the first is probably bad and maybe the 2nd too..

Thanks !
