Clemente AUTOGRAPH?

mintacular · #1 07-05-2023, 05:27 PM

A friend of mine has original photos of PGH Pirates that he sent to the team in the early 70s and received this Clemente "autograph" back. Any thoughts on authenticity--I'm more of a card guy so don't know.

I do not think this is authentic. Maybe a secretarial if sent to Pirates. Not an expert on Clemente but it looks off to me. Others should offer an opinion.

Looks off to me as well.

should be in auto section up top, but I feel its no good also. I think there was a guy known for doing this particular photo?

Correct. I heard it was a clubhouse guy. A friend had one that he tried to get authenticate at the 2008 National and Steve Grad, then with PSA told us they weren’t authenticating that postcard because so many were questionable.
