I would love to see the OP's reasoning on their opinion, and when an expert or other members' come on stating 'yay or nay' on why they believe the autograph is good or bad by pointing out characteristics proving so.

What I believe you are saying is that you would actually like to see an autograph authenticated/proven real or not. PSA, JSA and others are not authenticators and do nothing to authenticate autographs. There is no proof or reasoning to the service they offer and there is no evidence that they are even performing the service/analysis as they claim. If these so-called "authentication companies" were to include there reasoning or proof in their LOA's then there would be an opportunity for a retort or evidence to the contrary (as with members on this board). Why give an opportunity for one's image to be diminished if you can get away without being challenged, tested or pushed for answers?
In some cases proof has been offered on this board...

... and I can tell you there has been no quality increase in Ezzard Charles, Rocky Marciano, Mickey Walker or Evander Holyfield forgeries in the trade. Authentic autograph examples are to be had all over the net, not just here. Cop out?
