Mantle signed ball... Need opinions ASAP

Hi,

Saw this ball online at an estate sale for tomorrow morning. I think it looks good IMO, but I wanna check in with you all before I think about making the trip in the morning. Sorry but this is the only photo I could obtain. Thanks in advance for the help.

Unfortunately, the pic does make it harder to judge. In a quick glance, my initial thoughts were that it was likely good. However, looking again, I'm concerned about the "M" in Mickey. I think I'd need a clearer picture.

I agree with you 100% on that. The first m does look a little strange. That's the one thing that is concerning me as well

No good?

I meant good luck trying to determine that from this pic.

I know, I don't think it's worth the trip this morning

The image is way too small to be definitive, but based on this it appears as if there is a possibility it may be ok. Does not appear to match the style of the typical mass produced fakes, so I would not rule it out immediately.

I agree. I do not see anything from the photo that screams of your typical Mantle forgery.
