Reprint my azz. Card my azz.

I bought this photo last year. Memory Lane I think. One of a kind (as far as the AH) knows, and I have not seen a copy anywhere besides my safe deposit box. So whatever piece of dreck this joker is selling is presumably printed from a scan he took off the auction house website then used to create their reprint "card" with a crappy fake signature.

High quality stuff.

Thank you for helping the collecting community out by outing this!

It very clearly says "reprint" in the description, and the price is a whopping 99 cents. What is there to "out"? Anyone who thinks this might be real probably doesn't have their parents' permission to purchase things on the internet anyway.

You are correct. Labelled reprint, which is at least saying its not genuine. But it's not a reprint card. It's a fabricated never existed piece of garbage. I checked out this dude's store because he has a few thousand feedback. Has tons and tons of fake pieces of crap. I guess it pays the bills somehow.

Many many fake Ruth signatures. I guess he/she or someone close can do these at the drop of a hat. Or maybe he steals off a legit item and then just prints it somehow off the computer.

I just wonder if these people are trying to prey off kids and adults who may for one reason or another have limited intellectual capacity to understand what they are actually buying.

I've observed the listings and sales from Ebay seller Baseballcardsandcollectibles and they've sold numerous forgeries.

In my opinion, EBay seller Baseballcardsandcollectibles knows exactly what they are doing.

GFA-certed (Stephen Rocchi) Mickey Mantle forged photo.

Those Mantle's are nice "decorative" pieces :D.
But what do you do with the COA?
I can think of one or two things to do with it :D.

Rocchi has no conscience whatsoever.....

Or.....

He doesn't know squat about autographs.

GFA's COA's are from the "alternative facts" world.:D
Now they are just "decorative."

For all those new to this crap:
GFA authenticated items that are now being sold as decorative.
And ebay, despite many warnings, allowed this GFA authenticated crap to be sold by the hundreds and thousands.

Read that sign.
"these items are none signed" WTF does that mean :D.
The seller should be ashamed too. Trying to scrounge a few bucks out of your initial investment makes you look like a fool and casts doubt on your entire inventory.

Only if whatever ink that was used can be completely removed. Then maybe the picture has some sort of value.

Shoes

But it would still have the stench from having been touched by the Florida crooks.
Not sure about the shoes though I guess they would have more value than the photos.:D:D
