I knew someone would know if the Mantles were good or not. I tend to have major doubts about the Ruth if the Mantles aren't good. However, I did think the Koufax looked OK.

I'm not a Koufax guy so can't say if it's real or not...but...what many sellers do is "sprinkle" a group of balls with a few lower priced authentic ones. That way they will give the impression the whole group is real. Ebay is loaded with sellers like this. One seller a while back had individual signed baseballs of 11 members of the Home Run club...He was selling the whole group of 11 balls in the one auction. The most expensive ball in the group would be the Mantle. And of course the Mantle was bad.

I'm not an expert but I don't like that Kofax.

It looks like the letters are squashed together and the "S" in Sandy seems oddly shaped.

I'd love to hear the opinions of more experienced people with his signature.

I looked closer at the Ruth and I'm not really liking what I see compared to some "known" good examples.

I'm assuming you mean since the Ruth ball has red thread that it's not the right era ball. Is that correct?

I'm not sold on that Koufax. Don't like the "S".
