Autographed Mantle New Era Hat
Any ideas about the autograph on this New Era hat from the late 80s?
Have a bad feeling since the other autographed items are clearly Operation Bullpen items, but thought I'd get a second opinion. Some of the more finesse characteristics I'm used to looking at don't really pop out with felt marker on wool. Thanks! Last edited by MrSeven; 07-20-2017 at 07:28 AM. |

I would not be so quick to dismiss it. My one big tell is there.

Dammit. I need to find more tells. I don't look for Mantles so I haven't seen so so many of them, but I hadn't seen a forgery with that tell.
Crap. Tom C |

Damn, I'm never going to be consistent with Mantle. Back to studying.

Thank you, Andrew...
The thing about learning autographs (and I am far from perfect) is to always use your "eye" to observe and view the autograph as a whole. |

The easiest item to forge is anything wool. It does not show just how slow the signature is plus it spreads the ink so that it covers up some of the mistakes you would see on a ball.
This was so bad that wool or not it was easy to spot. |

not sure what your tell is, but I'm telling you that this is a clear cut FORGERY PERIOD! No tells needed, I have eyes
