Bogus Cobb Sig on Bat

[Shoeless Moe]

This doesn't look like his green pen, it looks like someones green Sharpie. At least use a pen not a Sharpie if u'r going to try and swindle.

PS - I love the word Bogus, was that a 70's word or an early 80's?

How does Mr. Morales "subject it to a full document examination"?

Another unsuspecting buyer who looks at the words "handwriting expert" and doesn't realize Morales certs are grounds for removal on eBay.

$550 so far, probably bought it from Coach for a quarter of that.

ShoelessMoe,

Bogus= Southern California surfer slang late 1970's-early 1980's.

Sean Penn made it viral in his portrayal of a stoner surfer in the cult classic Fast Times at Ridgemont High, one of my alltime fav's that came out in 1982.

BTW, bogus has always been one of my favorite words as well!

Another great one is "gnarley".

Poof!

[Mr. Zipper]

I reported this one yesterday. Glad to see it disappeared.

Dan, for crying out loud, haven't read the Morales COA. He uses "State Of The Art Technology""State Of The Art Technology" to "Forensically Examine" autographs.

Of course, the "State Of The Art Technology" that he utilizes cannot detect signatures that have been traced.

Which Ty Cobb? THEE Ty Cobb, or Ty Cobb (1915 - ?) sports writer for the Nevada State Journal, and secretary of the Western Nevada Semi-Pro League.

Or... Ty Cobb current Nevada State Representative? The sad thing it's probably none of the three.
