Forgers need to do their homework better.

Forgers need to do their homework better.

So should sellers.
The seller of this piece may have no knowledge the auto card never existed in color when produced.
But they should do a bit of legwork to make sure of its authenticity.

Rich's two posts just disappeared. Weird stuff is happening on this thread.

Jay- of course you are right. I didn't even notice until just now that the seller believes that is a genuine Fro-Joy. It's bad all around.

Rich had 4 consecutive posts up - each one added a single word more then the previous one and none completed a sentence (I think the 4th post was some,thing like "What does this seller"), so I figured he was having some browser issues and cleared them.

I saw two of the posts and realized something was wrong. Never saw that before.

Something went haywire when I was posting; and I'm glad that got cleared up.

And to answer the question; the Babe signed these during a "One-off" private signing for Coaches' Corner authenticated by Stat Authentic.

Item is being offered by "Unbelievable Memorabilia". At least they can't be sued for false advertising!
