To me, the Mantle looks like a vintage example and I think it is okay, lots of speed. I think the Foxx is okay as well.

I think it's similar to the era of this example, even though this is a stacked one. Hopefully I can get this to post correctly from my iPad.

Please look at picture from Scott. This is a club house signature. I was trying to show that a vintage signature of Mantle is not from the Seventies. From around 68 on was the signature we see the most.
In regards to the cut that started this all my opinion stands.

That's a much earlier signature than the 1970s.

FWIW, I think its good.

Mike I was trying to show that a 70 autograph was his modern autograph not vintage.
Which autograph do you think is good.

Hi Shelly, I am looking at this on my phone, but I am pretty certain that the example you posted is a clubhouse of mantle from the 1960's, so no it wouldn't look anything like the one the OP is asking about :-)

Here's one that I think would be from the same era as the OP one style wise, probably a little more current.

The last one Shelly posted was an error - here is a vintage example Shelly asked me to post for him - a true vintage Mantle. 1970's was not vintage.

And Jeff - Shelly says: "Good eyes, Jeff - very well-done".

Thanks Shelly :-)

When I originally used the term vintage, I should have been more specific, I meant 1970's all along. To me that is somewhat vintage :-) The examples I have had on balls from the early to about 1956 are drastically different. In my opinion, there are a ton of differences between his 1970 signature and the ones your see from the late 1980's and early 1990's too, like all the UDA ones. Mostly in the "K" but also other places. We may just have to agree to disagree on this one, just from what I can see in the scan I would probably be comfortable buying it.
