A guess is the photo is stock leftover from GAI and/or its owners. I said a guess.

Well I guess Stephen Rocchi (GFA) and his team of Guaranteed Forensic Authenticators are up and running.
They forensically authenticated another one of these Mantle signed photographs. What a piece of garbage. Mr. Rocchi, maybe you can come over here and explain to us the forensic techniques used to "authenticate" the below Mantle autograph? Mantle-GFA-2.jpg Mantle-GFA-3.jpg Mantle-GFA-5.jpg |

It didn't take long for this matter to become clear.

It started with Birdsick and then ---->> GFA.
And Mr Rocchi's firm does not answer their e mail and most obviously does not want any public submissions or contact. And I bet he reads this site.

Chris - if you look at the auction ad you can see it is an autogrape , not necessarily an autograph.
Perhaps the authenticators thought they were working with fruit.
