Hopefully thats a positive 3/3, the second one is the one I'm most concerned about.

I think they are all good but I would wait for Mr. Williams to chime in. He's the Mantle expert & might be busy watching the Yankees at the moment.

Any idea on the first two pieces Terrier?

Mike, I hesitated to comment on the photos because they do look a little off to me. I share Steve's concerns, and I also believe they are very similar in letter formation, especially the Mickey part.

Thanks Terrier, do you know if Gotta Have It is a reliable place to buy memorabilia?

I think the first two are questionable. Note how the "ickey" are almost identical. They have an almost too perfect look and I am typically wary of unpersonalized inscriptions with Mantle.

Curious to see what others think on the first two.

First one I think is definitely good, second one I'm not too sure.

All these items were purchased from Gotta Have It by the way.

I do believe they are reputable.  I believe the owner's name is Tony.

Thanks. The seller of these bought them from Gotta Have It in New York and still has the receipts/COAs. The second one is really the only one thats throwing me off, I'll have a quick opinion done on it.
