Is this real?? Ted Williams Auto

[travrosty]

autographs are more than one letter.

[shelly]

Not when it come's to Willams, I said I would not buy because of the open d. I would not buy it if it had an open a. It might be good but there are hundreds of good signitures out there why would I buy one if I had doubts?
This is a fake Williams done by the and east coast foger be honest what would most of you said real or fake.

I agree with Shelly. If you have doubts then pass on it since it might be couple hundreds buck you are gambling on. But if it is only $30 I would take the risk in this case.

Agreed, the problem if it is bad then it is thirty dollars down the drain. I will go half with you and see what they say with a quick opinion. Or with your ok I will put it up for sale on ebay and ask for a quick opinion.I a interested to say what they say.

Shelly, which ball are you referring to?

[shelly]

I'm not claiming to be a Williams expert, but this one would strike me as suspect. The d doesn't look right and the transition from the d to the W appears a bit wobbly with too much "thinking." A clearer image might be more telling.

Thanks Mr Zipper for putting it up on ebay for the quick opinion! I just sent you a PM I want to pay you the $7 for it. You did that without any agreement to be reimbursed. I think that is amazing!!

So my next question would be what about the quality of the signature and the ball from the pics I posted?

Would any of you think I should pay the extra $$ to get it graded or just authenticated?

I am not an expert at all with this, I am just getting back into the hobby, but this ball and signature look really really nice compared to alot of the other signed Williams balls that I have seen online.

Zip, you the man.

If your going to sell it maybe but if your going to keep it no reason.

[dapro]

I thought Shelly did the psa quick opinion. haha

Depends you want to resell it or not. If you want to sell it then get it graded too. I think it is 8-10.

I think you are confusing me and Shelly.

Shelly posted it for the PSA Quick Opinion.

I contacted you through private message regarding another expert's opinion.

In any case, looks like you got quite a steal. I am not into grading autographs, so I'm probably not the person to ask about that. IMO it is a strong, bold autograph... No need for a formal grade.

You won the golden ring for $30 if you are going to keep it. Don't spend another dime.
