The first inkling I had about the Halper collection was when they put a bunch of the lesser priced items on Ebay. He had a bat signed by McGwire and Sosa and both signatures were ridiculously bad. that was the first red flag. I remember after Halper passed the flood gates opened on how many items were misrepresented or fake all together.
Back in the 90's I remember also seeing and auction for a vial of "thick viscous liquid removed from Ty Cobb's lungs". That may be 50% more ridiculous then the dentures.
