Steve Grad Psa Dna
 

Posted By: <b>Thomas Walcott Sr</b><p>Please give me your opinion on Steve Grad the head authenticator at Psa Dna and his work. Is Mr Grad considered the tops in the field as I have just come across a very large vintage collection of over 300 autographed baseballs that are all over 50 years old, and I would like to have authenticated for resale purposes. <br>

Posted By: <b>PASJD</b><p>I could be wrong about this, but I think I have read here recently that when you submit to PSA nowadays you get back a "corporate" authentication signed by Joe Orlando and not the authentication of Mr. Grad or any other individual. You might try to find the recent thread(s) dealing with this subject. I also don't know if submitting to PSA is the only way to have Mr. Grad involved, my impression is that the top authenticators do not work exclusively for one company.
