this is one of the stupidest forgeries imaginable.  This card came out AFTER Clemente passed away.

Well, you try to sign a decent autograph when you're dead.

I don't remember if I told this story or not, but years ago I was following an auction for a Don Drysdale signed 1995 SLU. 

The auction finally ended and I asked the winning bidder "Are you a big Don Drysdale fan?"

The buyer replied "Yes I am.  I am very happy I won this."

I then replied "If you're such a huge Drysdale fan, then tell me why you would bid on a signed 1995 Don Drysdale SLU when Mr. Drysdale passed away in 1993?"

The winning bidder never replied.

I did, Steve.

Not only that, but he had already left the seller positive feedback.
