Before I continue, below are links showing hundreds of examples of forged Mickey Mantle baseballs, photos, etc. found on Ebay (the most dangerous place to buy autographs if you're a casual collector or impulse buyer).

Check out this forged Mickey Mantle, Ted Williams and Joe DiMaggio forged sold by Ebay seller Michaelsmemories for a whopping $172.50.

When does an autographed Mickey Mantle, Joe DiMaggio and Ted Williams photo sell for a whopping $172.50?

When are piece-of-crap forgeries.

These are laughable forgeries penned by either a moron or 3-year old.

Look at this crap!!!

With Ebay so heavily-populated with delusional autograph collectors and impulse buyers, it does not shock me that this garbage sold.

You would be hard-pressed to find a set of more laughable forgeries.
