Glen Turner....like I have always said get your card (signed or unsigned) in a PSA/DNA holder or a PSA 9 or 10 holder and it definitely increases its value whether or not it is an authentic signature or the card is graded correctly or not.
I have had several experiences with PSA/DNA authenticating autographs. Here is two of my favorite stories.
In 1965 at the Continental Hotel in Houston, Texas, I personally watched Mr. Clemente sign 3 cards for me. Well, I decided to send them to PSA for authenticating and guess what? Only one of the THREE cards got authenticated.
In the early 1960s I sent a 1960 and a 1961 Fleer Baseball Greats cards to Paul Waner.
I received them both back signed in the same ink and the same envelope from Mr. Waner. I sent them to PSA and they authenticated one of the TWO cards.
I have always said no matter whether they authenticate your signature or question your signature's authenticity, PSA has YOUR money in the bank. Same goes with graded cards.
Whether your card is graded correctly or under or overgraded PSA has YOUR money in the bank.
I am not saying they don't try to do their BEST, I am just saying bottom line is that they still have YOUR money in the bank.
Just my own experiences and my opinion.
