(1) With vintage autographs, it will always be an authenticator's best guess -- we can't ask Cap, and even if he were here today, even he might not know for sure;
(2) A vintage autograph only has as much value as the value of the authenticator in the market in which the autograph would be sold. I like James Spence, and all my autographed T206 cards are authenticated by James Spence. If it turns out he was a fraud, the value of my autographed T206 cards would be zero until I got another respected authenticator to authenticate them.
