if restored autographs in sports is acceptable, then there is a lot of "restored" autograph for sale all over the place, it's called no good.
a big question is how it was restored, does eac know how because it is scary to think how many more autographs out there are "restored" like that?
how can it be listed as the finest truman signed ball extant, if it isn't trumans signature, but "restored"
I am not buying that restored excuse. there is no such thing as a restored autograph. no fault of yours james, thanks for getting the explanation.
If eac knew it was "restored" they should have rejected the signed ball at the least and contacting authorities wouldn't have been out of the question. to say that they specialize in historical items is a cop out. Reznikoff knows darn well that "restored" sports autographs is something that doesn't exist. This stinks.
