A Mickey Mantle signed piece - will JSA pass?

Purchased this last year. I want to frame & hang it, but would like to get it authenticated first (I'm nearly certain it's real, but doing this more for investment value). JSA will be local tomorrow so was thinking of bringing it to get looked at, so won't have to pay shipping/insurance. ...let me know your thoughts? Thanks!

will pass easily. Please get a LOA and don't let them put that ugly sticker on your piece of history!

Thanks Ryan. Yes, i plan to opt for the sticker on the LOA and not on the signed piece! I agree it's ugly.

personally, I wouldn't pay those snake oil salesman a plugged nickel. Why would you buy a sticker for a $100.00??? Do you have castle walls made of benjamins. Fudd does and you know why? Because he doesn't waste his money on stupidity (LOL).

You had a good idea it was real when you bought it, you confirmed it here. You did your due diligence. Here's Fudd's advice formerly the Lowly Mantle collector. If it's your only Mantle, go ahead and get it professionally framed. Use Archival UV glass so it won't fade if it's exposed to light.

Another option is to make a ink jet copy and put it in a store bought frame. Put the original in a top loader and put it away. I actually think the photo copies look better.

don't be a minion and fall prey to the insanity that is 3rd party BS...take the hundred and flush it or save it for your own castle wall.
