We aren't big time by any means but after our event, which happens to be today, we will have raised over $50,000 over 4 years. Only a small portion of this comes from the autographs. This year we will have jerseys signed by Pete Rose and Tony Dorsett. Both obtained at a signing in Wichita. We also have signed art from country star Miranda Lambert that was acquired from her store the Pink Pistol for Mutt Nation.
I'm not going to disagree that much of what is at other auctions is fake but let's not throw all of us under the bus.

Nice to know there is ONE charity doing the right thing Farmboy. That's one in a million, like Haystacks Calhoun. Now we should all jump at buying at Charity Auctions because 1 out of a zillion doesn't sell forgeries? Lest us not forget that Charity auctions are the BIGGEST SCAM for Autographs and EVERYTHING is FAKE, until proven otherwise. It's the wheelhouse for All the USUAL suspects from ACE, GA, STAT, Coaches Corner, MFP, MFP Afterbirth, Drew Maxx AAU, MORALASS, you know the all losers.....
