May I ask, why do you think signed 8x10s are not heavily collected anymore? Why do you think their prices suck now? Signed photos use to be so cool in the 1980’s. What happened?

I think they have been heavily tainted by forgers. When I see a generic 8x10 my first thought no matter who the player, is this is probably a forgery.
They are also usually attributed with mass signings and after career appearances. Very rarely do you find 8x10 dime color photos signed by a rare subject. So the scarcity so many collect for just isn't there at all.
There's a reason people aren't bringing koufax their 50 cent canon prints to get signed haha.
