hahaha

Yes of course but this is the first time I have ever seen a Drew Max authenticated item, and I am looking for a Mantle right now for my collection and ran across this.

SO is it an automatic "not authentic" because its Drew?

Also it seems that about 75% of authenticated items are by JSA???

Is JSA a more reliable and reputable source on Mantle sigs? or is this just the whats out there right now...

I prefer PSA if its not a steiner, UD, Tri, etc etc et

but if JSA mantles are more reputable then I will look at those.

Steiner Sports rely heavily on JSA authenticated items as well as PSA authenticated items.  I personally prefer JSA when it comes to sports memorabilia.

Here is that piece-of-crap Mickey Mantle forgery on a baseball listed by Ebay seller GoingQuick406 and "authenticated (cough, cough)" by Drew Max (AAU).

The Mantle just is horrid, and is mainly the reason I posted it on here...

even the HOF 74 is way off. I just looked a couple up and the H and O and F and 7 are nothing like Micks

First Drew I have seen haha

LOL.  Thanks, William.

I require a ton of throat spray when Drew Max is mentioned.

He should be embarrassed to call himself an FDE.

I ran across this on ebay. Its got a generic crappy COA and the Mantle looks Mautle to me. But I love this type of setup with shadowbox.

Do you all think this ball is legit?  If so I may consider buying it, but I have my doubts

Look at this.. Signed twice, which the bottom looks fake, but I looked it up on PSA and this is how the photo was sent to them. Both sigs on the photo at the same time when PSA cert it??

Bottom may be facsimile, and either way they are both authentic.,
