Thanks so much for all the info! I have the same items in the pictures sitting on my desk, no joke. Thank Goodness I found this forum because I obviously do not want to contribute to releasing more forgery and fake sport's memorbilia into the market, knowingly or otherwise, and there is very little info on the company any where on the net ( that I could find). Next question... What do I do with the stuff now? I really don't feel like I should have to pay to ship the crap back sense it was completely unsolicitated, as a matter of fact I have still have never been able to talk to any one from "autograph Legends" or from the website they list www.carlsstore.com. The package literally just showed up with a very basic packing list, I didn't even have to sign for it. Red flags all the way through this for sure so again Thank You so much for confirming my suspecions!

This is where that package came from:

people talk about "cold calling" to drum up business. these guys are taking it to the next step by just cold-dropping off these packages at small, local auctions. kinda interesting to see their distribution model.

Thanks for all your help! I wish this link came up when you search for info on that company, I'm sure it would help a lot of other people too. When you do search "Autograph legends llc" only a ton of listings from other auction houses come up. That is what I find really disturbing, most auction houses appear to be blindly listing this crap! Thats crazy!

It's unfortunate, but that garbage has been listed and sold at hundreds of local auction houses, charity events, etc.

The "CSC Collectibles" COA is on Ebay's Banned COA list. When that crap is listed on Ebay and "reported," it gets removed.

The distribution of that garbage (forgeries) is far reaching and almost beyond comprehension.

That's even worse then I thought! It appears the game has been played for a while, they just keep changing the players names. I usually only deal with autographs on trading cards, but luckily I know enough that I saw about ten red flags before I even got through the box. It just got more strange from there, the strangest and probably the most comical is there was also two random items in the box; a 1980's Dukes of Hazard watch, and my favorite item is what they called a " Vintage, Circa 1950's, lucky penny keychain", only problem is the penny was dated 1964.

That reminds me of a person that used to post on our board. He touted a "great" authenticator and showed a US Currency bill that had a Babe Ruth signature on it which his guy authenticated. The bill was put out/dated in 1954, Ruth passed away in 1948.

That's pretty comical too!
