there are numerous bad autographs where the person believes it is good. you just can't tell them otherwise.

a guy had a james corbett signature recently that wasn't any good. he asked me if i wanted to buy an old 1892 james corbett signature. i told him it wasnt any good.

he then said that he asked me if i wanted to buy it, not if it was authentic, because he already knew it was authentic. (it's not).

i told him i could show him what was wrong. he didnt want to know. i showed him anyway , he didnt care and said i didnt know what i was talking about,

he said i was an amateur because he sent it into spence and spence gave it a coa just like i knew spence would do. It's not a real corbett autograph, now it has a spence coa. it might as well have been signed by bozo the clown but if they don't want to listen, there isnt anything anyone can do. now he might be able to sell it because spence looked at it for awhile and gave it a coa.

it's so frustrating.
