mickey mantle autographed photo

i was wondering if anyone knew of this photo, or if the autograph was real. I bought this from a collector who said he bought it at a charity auction in early 90's, the coa is from hall of fame sports (they went out of business in mid to late 90's. I found this exact picture on google images under mickey mantle autographed golf picture but it had a coa from james spence and sold for 1150. take a look and any information would be appreciated.

from what I can see it looks good. I'd give it about a 7 on my 10 point system. and a 95% chance it's real.

It probably sold for about a GRAND too much at $1,150.00 (LOL). even with the JSA maybe $250-350 as an 11 x 14 and hard to find pose. The signature is just not that strong.
