Check out these two ugly Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris forgeries on a mini-poster.

These two putrid-looking Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris forgeries on a mini-poster was listed and sold by Ebay seller Cadwells-Collectibles for $127.50.

This is just one of the reasons why our autograph hobby is infected with forgeries.  You have people who have ZERO knowledge of autographs buying crap like this at local auctions, estate sales, charity events, etc., only to flip them for a profit on Ebay.

This kind of garbage is listed on Ebay because the sellers of this type of crap (forgeries) know that Ebay is heavily populated with wannabe autograph collectors who buy this crap.

These are ugly Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris forgeries!!!  Does the buyer of these forgeries really think they got authentic autographs of Mantle and Maris for $127.50?

Seriously???!!!
