So, after my lengthy but fantastically scintillating and dramatic Cal Ripken Jr autograph story, I wonder if Ali, an active guy who has his autographs marketed, has someone combing through eBay. Ala the Ripken marketing machine, a concern may be whether or not the autograph is 'official.' Someone somewhere decided that celebrities own the rights to their signature just as they due to their image.
Meaning, maybe famous athletes or their reps might try to have an autograph removed even when it's in a PSA holder. Their issue not being whether or not the sig is genuine, but whether or not the seller has the right to market it for money.
Food for thought.
