this seller likely has no idea whether his items are authentic or not. No question that he has a lot of horrendous and obvious fakes. But he also has many authentic items, including a very nice Mantle signed mag cover. While I generally agree with the approach "if the seller has some fakes, then most likely everything is questionable", in this case, I would look at each signature on its own merit, and with regards to the Mays, I believe it to be authentic.

I disagree 100%. I believe they are knowingly selling fakes. Some of them are so atrociously awful anyone would be able to tell they are fake if you showed them authentic examples and then the bad ones.

that may very well be. But the point is not whether or not they are knowingly selling fakes. The question was on the authenticity of the Mays item. Just because this seller has obvious fakes (knowingly or not), does not mean the Mays is fake by association.

Ok...but my point was in reference to your comment which you missed I guess (stupid text ![]() Of course, I never said the Mays couldn't be authentic. I personally don't like it. I don't like the first letter. But, it doesn't pass the piss test for me.

This is my 1996 auto'd Mays card (reprint of 1966 Topps), for what it's worth as a comparison…
