I was on the search for that card for a couple years and just recently landed one. Can't really vouch for the signature but the card looks good to me. There are a lot of Musial signatures out there you could compare it to.

The card is for real. To echo what Stlcardsfan states, I can't vouch for the signature either. You just have some natural wear 'n tear "rub off", as I refer to it, on the front. I can really tell from the back of the card (that you scanned). I have owned a raw 48B Musial for decades. I have it in hand right now. Unfortunately at the moment my scanner doesn't want to "communicate" with my Windows OS, or I would post some pix. Very nice looking card (yours), just the way I love them!

Thx guys appreciate the help! I read you can tell by the back if it's authentic, so what's the tell? The Sig is authentic imo.

"The Tell" is this, and it's been said by board members far wiser than I. Something to the effect of, If you handle enough cards in your lifetime...you will just know. For me, it's like an instinct for 48 Bowmans. I got mine in the 60s from a collector who got them originally out of packs. In this case I don't even need to see your card in person because your scans are so accurate. I will try to post some later today if I can get my scanner and laptop to stop being so temperamental, shake hands and make up (if they start making out I will grab my camera).
