Another Mickey Mantle

[Jerry James Bernhagen]

Hello, I buy and sell books and ran across this book signed by Mickey Mantle and didn't even question the authenticity and then started looking around and found this website. Now I'm wondering if this is his signature, and I'm also wondering if I should send it in to be authenticated.

What do you think?

[James Wymer]

I like it, but I would certainly base my opinion on guys like Chris Williams, Fud, Cee Gee, Terrrier, Mr. Zipper.

[Jerry James Bernhagen]

Thank You for responding. The only things I don't like from my extremely limited experience is the dot above the I is usually more directly over the I, and I only saw a few other signature examples where the second M bottom was rounded, usually from what I saw it's pointed. 

My .0001 cents worth.

Thanks Again,

Jerry

Just remember Jerry let the other guys chime in. I get them wrong somedays.

Hello John,

I'll be listing it on Ebay. I had it listed and no one bought it so it made we wonder if it was suspect, that's why i ended up here. 

Thank You,

Jerry
