Default Would you mind tendering your opinions on Aaron, Williams, DiMaggio and Mantle balls?

I would appreciate your opinions on these 4 signed balls- Hank Aaron, Ted Williams, Joe DiMaggio and the Mick. These represent day 2 of a large collection of signed balls that my friend Shawn has been offered. These are the last 4 that I will ask about. Thanks in advance for your thoughts!

Not sure on the Aaron, but in my opinion the other three are bad.

Williams and Dimaggio are bad, and the Aaron looks bad to me...and I always freeze up when it comes to Mantle but I'd use the Jim Stinson drop of Piss test for the whole group.

I am still learning to spot fake Mantles but I would not touch that one. The K looks really off to me, and it looks slowly drawn. And, I don't know about anyone else but the fact they are shrink wrapped bothers me a bit.

Thanks a lot to everyone for your opinions. I suspected that all of these looked fishy.
Chris, I will pass along your advice.
Best,
Scott

Scott, One dead giveaway with the Williams ball is an open d or a. This has an open d. The Mantle is really easy, shakes and quarter moon M's
