Posted By: <b>brock</b><p>I know some of you guys seen this and i was wondering what you thought about all the autographs if they were real or not. I cant see someone taken that much time to do all of them. But then you look at them and none of them match up. The Johnnie Evers autograph is way off, he never spelled it "ie" just "ny". So what do you guys think about them. <br /><br /><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170236845703&ssPageNam e=h:h:alt:3&_trksid=m38" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170236845703&ssPageNam e=h:h:alt:3&_trksid=m38</a><br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Jodi Birkholm</b><p>I love the "Dan" Larsen signature. It's also particularly amazing that Evers (D. 1947) and Pete Vuckovich (Born 1952) both managed to sign this sheet in the same pen.

Posted By: <b>martindl</b><p><br />My goodness, that seller should be run out of town for listing those as 'autographs' - the buyer too for being so gullible, but thats another thing all together.<br /><br />Its obvious that whomever put the book together merely wrote out all the names of former players. There's no attempt there to try to copy or fake the signatures of the players themselves. Just look at all the J's that start a first name or a surname - they're absolutely identical. <br /><br />Its things like this that gets the autograph hobby such a bad name.

Posted By: <b>Todd Schultz</b><p>total buffoonery. I also see where he has signatures of Charley Schang, not Wally, and Larry Lersch, not Barry. Yep, money real well spent there.

Posted By: <b>Rhett Yeakley</b><p>This is perhaps the funniest auction I have ever seen. The amount of time this guy must have had the same red pen is amazing.<br />-Rhett

Posted By: <b>Jodi Birkholm</b><p>I alerted eBay about this, and they have contacted both bidder and seller. I hope that the winner didn't make an instant payment with PayPal (although that can be cleared up easily enough when eBay intervenes). As I said to my contact at eBay, I hate to ever see anybody get scammed, but when your level of ignorance is such that you can't spot the problems evidenced throughout this type of garbage, you're almost asking for it. It's like a blind person trying to drive an eighteen-wheeler.
