Regarding the T206 scandal it wasn't at all because they were signed in sharpie; in fact, most were ballpoint sigs. Looking quickly over the original Net54 thread, the only ones signed in Sharpie are the Rube Marquard (d.80) and maybe one of the Larry Doyle (d.74) cards. Both died well after the felt-tip pen was introduced. The photo-matching of the forged cards to scans of them in their unsigned state was what got them.
