DiMaggio and Williams - Opinions Needed

[prewarsports]

Is it just me or is there the tail end of another DiMaggio in the scan with the one in question? If so, why the difference in signatures if signed the same day? Just curious.

Steve, the Dimaggio in question in my opinion is not authentic. space between m and a gg's not correct. I just dont like it. It would add price to the piece. I will look for ward to what Joe D thinks.

Shelly,

Could he have been in a rush when he signed it, and could that be the reason for the space not looking good? Or is it a more fundamental difference that even a rushed attempt at a signature cannot explain.

Thanks everyone for your input.

Tom, if it was rushed some of his signiture should look good. I am not happy with the m as well.
This the problem of seeing so many sit down signitures. When you get a signiture from a player on the run it can sure make you think it is not authentic.

This was my thought as well. I don't like the look of it, but if rushed..maybe...?? Some of it looks ok, some not so much.

I'll most likely list it as having a questionable Joe D.

l would list it as not authentic/

Shelly is correct, but to put it even clearer, if it needs be
considering this was supposedly signed in 1991-93 era, there is no way possible that was signed by Joe DiMaggio
I saw 36,000 items signed by him in that exact era, and not one came out like that

Shelly does not need my endorsement but I agree, DiMaggio is no good.

probably Dom DiMaggio-a favorite Williams teammate

That other one is the tail end of Dom. He signed it as well.
