T206 Cobb on ebay - "Best Job Authenticating a Fake" Award

Posted By: Joann

Hahahaha. hahaha. I've never posted one of these 'fake this or that on ebay' links - too many to keep up with. But this one takes the cake.

How about the letter from the dealer? Think he may be unhappy about having his letter shown in its entirety on ebay? I love the part where he advises on how much the seller will get compared to book, and the selling helps and hints. Then pretty much says ... uhh I think these may be fakes. lolol At least this advisor had the presence of mind to try to call the company that issued the Cert of Auth.

Oh, and the "Certificate of Authenticity" is boilerplate, and for an autograph!

Sorry - I know we pollute the board with too many of these. But this one was so funny I couldn't resist piling on.
