Default Jim Palmer auto - real or fake?



From an Ebay auction.....was a reasonable price, so no big deal either way. Any light that can be shed would be appriciated on this one.

After looking at the Jim Palmer auto's in my Orioles collection (18 different ones), I'd say it was a FAKE. His signature is very hard to read. However, there is almost always a little space between the "J" & "P", and the end of "Palmer" usually has the look of a few letters (not a smooth line).

No thanks. However, several days ago I sent you a PM about my interest in your triple thread gu cards. I have a thread in the baseball marketplace that has a list of D'Back gu I have available. Please check it to see if you'd be interested in any. Have a good evening.

Note - you may want to take the Palmer to an authenticator to be 100% sure it is/isn't an authentic autograph (my comment was based off how it looked to me compared to those in my collection).
