i have a really nice uda mantle signed ball, however in cruising the million mantle autographs on ebay i see this uda ball out there...i always though that he was particular about giving you a masterpiece for your money....this one looks far from pretty...if i did see the uda decal, i would not have said it was real.....

any thoughts....?

You're welcome.

Autographs can be so convoluted. They're not always black and white. Some look ugly and are still ok and some look better and turn out to bad.

I'm still learning. Everyone on this website is wonderful. It's nice to know we all care.

I think it's especially PURDY due to the fact that those UD balls usually have toned oil spots like a raccoon even in the pouch and box. That one is actually white, which are pretty difficult to find.

Signature looks fine.  If it is not as nice as some other UDA baseballs, consider how many he signed in one sitting.  I can imagine the 500th ball not being as nice as the first 50.

this is one of the nicest UDA Mantle balls I have seen.

I had not thought about volume signing, this one being number 500+ of the day....you have a good point...i threw this post out there because i thought of how nice mantle's signature was and how people spend succh efforts to forge it...this particular baseball had the stretched out ending of "mickey" and i didn't like the "M's"....uda label is indisputable and i don't dispute it either...i have no intention to buy it...just remarking about some of it's details....

once again, thank you for your thoughts....after 50+ years, mickey mantle remains my favorite player of all time...
