An authentic replica!.... huh?
 

Posted By: <b>Joe D.</b><p>Noticed this one on eBay and just thought it was funny.<br /><br />It is an "authentic replica".<br /><br />It gets better...<br />it comes with a certificate of authenticity to say that it is indeed an authentic replica.<br /><br />'Authentic' and 'Replica'... when you put those two words in the same sentence, what exaclty does it mean?<br /><br /><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/Walter-Johnson-Replica-Signature-Baseball-Authentic-S_W0QQitemZ8816798699QQcategoryZ44817QQrdZ1QQcmdZV iewItem" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/Walter-Johnson-Replica-Signature-Baseball-Authentic-S_W0QQitemZ8816798699QQcategoryZ44817QQrdZ1QQcmdZV iewItem</a>

Posted By: <b>Noel</b><p>I came across something very similar however it came in the form of a birthday "present". I still have my authentic replica baseball's (certificate of authenticity and all) that my mother and father in law gave me several years ago. They are wonderful in-laws and searched for a while before they found the perfect gift for me. I thanked them graciously and tried to contain my enthusiasm.
