Mantle 8x10...what do you think?

From the resources from this community, I truly believe this is a forgery.  From the failed "sailboat" swoops in the m's to the lower "mantle".  From what I've read "mantle" should be a bit higher compared to "Mickey"

There are things I like and dont like about this one in particular...as far as characteristics go...this could go either way...but because I can't personally say good or bad I would just stay away from it personally...

Im with CEE GEE on this, but I feel a little stronger about it, I think its fake. Anyway, I would not take a chance on it.

From what I can see it appears to be likely not authentic. Sizing and baseline are all over the place... formation is not good.

After seeing this on the computer aposed to my phone I have to agree with my 2 pals Zipper and Terrier...this is no question a forgery...didnt realise how uneven the last name was...and the "M" formations are pretty well off as well...

right up there with the one I posted or better yet this gem from the same place but at least the auctioneer has an appropriate name Capt'n Ahab.

maybe we need to start it's own thread on this auction site;

at least we know where CSC Collectibles (banned from EBAY) may start showing up...

I hate 7 of 10 aspects to this signature...I especially HATE the "tle". This is the tell tale sign of a complete mess forgery, though the other 6 aspects tell me it's putrid in any event.
