The whole thing is pretty stupid. How's that for a summation?
The homemade Joe Jackson with reprinted signature of his wife on back is rather ludicrous (Is someone working on the master set of reprinted player's wifes signatures?), but I do agree that when you look at some of his other items it gets shady and problematic. Includes 'fascimile' cut signatures 'for display purposes.' Though the holders do say reproduction on back.
As I often say to beginning collectors, when a seller says something is a reprint believe him. Sellers make up that something's real not fake.
If the items sell for the min bids, I doubt it was worth the maker's effort. I would think he'd be making less than minimum wage or even losing money overall on those creations.
