Default Found this Sandy Koufax auto'd picture after 10 years.

After 10 years in deep storage, I was able to locate my Sandy Koufax autographed picture. We moved in 2014. I thought I had accidently donated this when we moved.

We have a one car garage that was packed to the gills with storage totes & cardboard boxes. We had a yard sale / donation to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society & cleared out a literal ton of stuff.

It is a quality 10" x 13" photo. If anyone wants to chime in & now tell me the auto is real, I will be estatic. Happy collecting to all.

I mean, the fact that it's cut off by the white border probably isn't a good sign.

That’s matted so the end of the sig is under the edge of the mat. I think.

You are correct. I need to have this professionally framed once I am confident it is real.



The auto is in blue sharpie.

Ah of course, I see it now. Well it certainly looks like his signature, I guess the question is whether it's "live" or printed. Looks very "flat" and homogeneous but honestly hard to tell from those pics.

I think this is a good sign - same pic but auto in a different spot. If it was printed on, the auto would likely be in the same location. Doesn’t mean that there weren’t printed autos on this picture, but this shows there are PSA/DNA Auth autos on that pic.
