Would this turn you away...?

If it was me, I'd leave it alone. It's a good sig, that's all that matters. I've seen a lot of items framed much much worse. It's not that bad. Frank

Personally I don't like the cuts displayed like that. Same with the Perez Steele ones. Some look like 3rd grade art projects but that's just me. I think they look better autographed on the card or if it's a HOFer that has passed then a cut outside of the card matted in a display. Everyone has there choice on what they like and that is what makes everyone's collectibles so cool. Do what makes you happy and don't let anyone change your mind.

I have someone that can help me alter it a bit (the postcard/display format) if I were to crack it. Here's a mock up I made.

I have many cuts of deceased players on HOF plaques in my collection, either because they were not alive when they were elected to the HOF or actual signed HOF plaques are nearly cost prohibitive to own. As for Griffey, I would opt to put the cut signature with something else like the Barry Colla Postcard which looks very nice, or a Colla Rookie 8x10 photo, which the cut doesn't obscure as much of the image as it does the PC.

If you collect signed HOF plaques, you should hold out for an actual signed one. They don't come along that often, but they can be had.
