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 the below forged "500 Homerun Club" baseball sold by Ebay seller Cawe_5172 for $485.00.

What a freaking waste of $485.00.

I hope the buyer submits this to Beckett or JSA.

It's 2020 and people are still buying crap like this that was mass-produced in the 1990's.

Crap like this sells because Ebay continues to be heavily-populated with delusional autograph collectors and impulse buyers who have this notion that Ebay filters out the forgeries.  Nothing could be further from the truth.  Ebay has profited big-time from the sales of forgeries for the past twenty years.

I will continue to expose this crap.

These are, at best, laughable forgeries penned by a moron forger.

Worthless so-called COA from All American Authentics.

Who?
