help with potentially signed Pete Maravich 1978 topps
 

I was rummaging through my graded card collection and found a graded signed 1978 topps #80 Pete Maravich but it is BCG graded signed ... I do not completely trust this company I would like to know if my card is indeed authentic. For some reason I cannot post pictures here from my phone but I can email pictures to people, can someone help me post it here?

My email address is Vintagecollectors@yahoo.com

Thanks

If it is authentic in would like to sell it.

Maravich didn't play baseball before he was born, did he? This should probably go in the Autograph section or the B/S/T or basketball board.

Yeah my mistake

Did the attachments work?

Is BCG a trusted authentication company? I have heard of BGS and BVG authenticating cards; however, this company is new to me.

It is new to me too wich is part of the reason I am asking for help

My gut feeling says no. I got him in person and he wrote "Pistol Pete' only. I asked him for his father's address as he also played pro ball and he wrote Maravich on that index card. When I wrote his father I got 3 index back signed by both Press and Pete and on those he still wrote only "Pistol Pete". This looks a bit too neat.

Agreed, I think its no good. His signature was usually pretty sloppy (hurried) and he almost always signed it simply "Pistol Pete"

The "M" in maravich has always bugged me

As I said in the BST trade side where you also posted this, no way. This is a terrible forgery.

Edward,

That is not an authentic Pistol Pete Maravich autograph.
