Mariano Rivera JSA Ball

Is this an example of an older Rivera signature? It looks nothing like anything I have seen before.

and of course more recent autos from the past decade....Left leans and elongated autos...after seeing my pictures and Mr.Zippers you may never own a fake in your life...the forgers will never touch his fluid style...

Cee Gee, these are great. it looks like he had a slight right slant very early on, but it became more vertical probably after his rookie year. I have a good photo of him, but I want to get a ball. I will probably try for a vintage one, as they are rarer and more desirable, in my opinion.

Cee Gee has made some very valuable contributions to this website. It's nice to have other collectors share their knowledge, too.

That Army would also include you, Mr. Zipper.

Mr.Williams and Mr.Zipper....your words are truly flattering and inspiring to me...I only wish I knew now what I knew then about this industry and the autograph forgery characteristics that does take some time and a trained eye to pick up on...Iam glad through this great site we can all put our heads together to help each other out to buy genuine pieces instead of spending hard earned cash on junk that has truly destroyed this hobby that we all love and have passion for...I take my hat off to both you guys for the hard work and shared knowledge you guys put in as well as we all join the fight to pinpoint fakes and to help others the best we can with autograph priceless advise...I wouldn't mind fighting this battle of the forgery war and being in trench or fox hole having both of your pairs of eyes on my side....

Also I want to thank Mr.Williams for his videos which is were I learned about operation bullpen...I don't think I would have ever known how bad this industry was without Chris's videos which once I saw the first video I began spending hours watching them for days on end and ordering the book...I was shocked when I found out how bad the industry has been destroyed by crooks and forgers...his info can save people thousands...the info also made me sick and extremely mad...I knew I needed to help in the cause...hats off to Steve.K as well and of course once again Mr.Zipper...you guys are true class acts in my book...thank-you guys for all the knowledge...lets continue to expose fakes and keep our hard earned cash out of the forgers pockets and help all that can use the collectors opinion on this site
