AutographLive will be buggy tonight while we test code we're developing for it. Everything should work fine within the next 3-5 hours.

Opinions on this Mantle signature please...

Need a little help from my Mantle experts out there. The clarity is the best I could get on this. I do have a few doubts like the M in Mantle apparently going straight up into the a. The e in Mickey and the angle of the i and the c also.

I'm really interested in this because of it's not real it's a high-quality forgery. Not the fakes we're used to seeing.

I agree, that's why I'm a little hesitant.

I could be wrong, but I think it’s authentic.

I think this is a forgery. Baselines and letter formations lean that way

I think it is authentic. Wait for the heavy hitters to chime in.

It's fine as long as it's not a pre-print.

I'm happy to hear it's real. It looks good but like you said, it has a couple of quirky characteristics. It would have been scary if fake.
