Just received this signed Mickey Mantle magazine, worth authenticating?

Just received this signed Mickey Mantle 1953 magazine from Leland’s. Apparently it didn’t come with a LOA. All my current collection has LOAs from Spence or PSA, all of it. I did get 2-3 opinions on it before buying who thought it’s legit.

should I spend the $100 to get this properly authenticated? I don’t plan on selling it, I already have selections made at the framers I use for it. The autograph if real, is easily a 10. Pictures don’t do it justice

Looks great, if you don't plan on selling it then I don't see the point of getting it authenticated.

Very nice autograph!, I also agree. Certainly no need to authenticate if you intend on keeping it.

its a beautiful signature. Flawless. As for the "investment" to get it certified, I would not waste the money. But its a personal decision, if you are more comfortable with it, then no harm. I just don't see the value. This is a no doubt authentic item and if you should ever decide to sell, should have no trouble getting a good price for it.
