"Done, thanks for the input. I don't have Elston Howard but I do have Hector Lopez, let me know what you think.

Howard's/National Sports Distributors
Hi guys,This topic probably has been covered but I'm a newbie here. I bought a Mickey Mantle autographed 8x10 from Howard's Sports Collectibles a while back that has turned out to be a forgery. An internet search for Howard's leads to "National Sports Distributors" (NSD) which is also referenced on their site. I sent an email to a person whose contact information was on the NSD site asking about Howard's and he replied saying he did not know them. Anybody here know anything about this?JimSee More
