Here are two cards I had signed by Mr. Musial about 2 years apart. The 1953 was signed about 3 months ago. It is sad to see how his signature has gone downhill but I still love both of the cards. I feel it is an honor to get his signature no matter what it looks like.

If that's an accurate representation of what Mr. Musial's signature looks like today, it's still more legible than many of the autographs signed by today's players.

Lol

Clearly not a lot of pride in his own name. If you can't do something right, why bother at all?

Now, whoever that is. how in the HECK can you authenticate that? ANYONE could do a wiggly squiggle.

Almost makes you wonder if the signature is intentionally designed that way so the ONLY way to buy one with any confidence would have to be through a paid signing.

Then again... nah... just a lazy stiff with no pride is more likely.

I think a more important question is one that I asked in the "Gallery of Awful Autographs" article that I linked to: do these guys sign their contracts and other legal and financial paperwork the same way they sign their cards and stickers?
