He signed one of my 1988 Topps baseball cards and I was still not able to identify it.  Nice work Terrier.

Thanks Terrier.I had no clue. I found it at an antique store two years ago in the box and cube for $7.95. I figured it was worth the shot for that cheap. I would almost break even on the cube if the sig was a fake. The seller had it labeled as unknown to him.

Does it seem legit to you?

Terrier, thanks again. After I bought it, two different people independent of each other, told me it was Barry Bonds. I knew it wasn't Bonds, because living in Tempe, Arizona my entire life, I was able to get him to sign many times from college till he left the Pirates. Then twice with the Giants. I also have hit his auto twice in card packs. So I knew this sig was not his. Strawberry is a pleasant surprise, because I didn't have his. The funny thing is, is the I am good friends with a guy who was roommates with Daryl during both of their first year of pro ball. He moved to the east coast a couple of years before I got the ball, or I would've shown him the ball and he would have known.

I agree, this looks nothing like Bonds signature.
