As we all know, an authentic Mickey Mantle autograph on a "1994 World Series" baseball is extremely rare....

As you can clearly observe, this is a horrid-looking and obvious forgery, but here's the kicker...
According to Ebay seller Monfog_0, Mickey Mantle "autographed this baseball" while attending his grandfather's funeral.
Ebay seller Monfog_0 writes "I was gonna have my grandpa buried with the 94 World Series baseball, but Mantle offered to sign it for me."
You can't make this stuff up!!!

Using a phony-baloney story revolving around one's grandfather's funeral to sell a fake is about as low as you can go.
Of course this is a common mass-produced Operation Bullpen style forgery.
Steve, it is unbelievable the lengths people will go to sell their forgeries.
All about da money. Nothing else matters to this person.
