But how do you file a police report
If you don't even know a letter is missing? I get your point; and I know someione would articulate this better than I will -- but as the song Big Yellow Taxi said: "You don't even know what you got till it's gone".
In this case; it appears someone got possession of a letter, and that letter has made the rounds since.
The point of this one is for Heritage and any one else who might have had the letter along the way -- what if you do some research; find nothing wrong and sell the item after getting what you believed was proper provenance.
And if you are a family member that is famous; do you examine what could be HUNDREDS of auction catalogs, remember this part of the autograph industry is far wider than sports, each year. I'm just saying that this is an hidden difficulty for auction houses.
Remember we had the same issue come up with the Harry Wright letters that Hunt was going to auction in July.
