The Ron Lewis piece is one autographed item I would be very pleased to have hanging on my wall. In my opinion, it is a piece that would easily be the centerpiece of an autograph collection.
Even though I try to strictly be a game used bat guy, the collection of players depicted on that one piece is by far one of the most impressive ever. It's one of my all-time favorite pieces and someday I may have to break down and buy one.

There are also a ton of forgeries of that piece out there, too. If yours is smaller than poster/litho size, you have an increased risk of it being a fake. If it IS one of the original numbered lithos (signed and numbered in pencil by Ron Lewis), chances are you have nothing to worry about. I would suggest you have your item authenticated by PSA or JSA.
Assuming that this is indeed the Ron Lewis artwork: The fact that your item is in "plaque" form is very troublesome. I have nearly always encountered problems when this is the case. Most times, it's a case of a color photocopy of an original or a terrible, outright forgery from the Operation Bullpen era. Yours doesn't have to be, but stands a 95% chance of being problematic.

Thanks for your replies I am new at this and appreciate your help and guidance. The item is mounted on a small marble base and the actual piece is about 12" x 12". It is not a photo or litho but rather appears to be a etched metal plate covered by a plexi-glass protector and looks like an artist rendering of the players. Each player has signed vertically along the right leg. In addtion to the players I mentioned it includes Mike S. and Reggie Jackson. It has an LOA and was purchased about 10 year ago.
