Teaching moments

[HOF Auto Rookies]

This is kind of taking a tangent and piggy-backing what Matt said in a different post.

I think it would be so beneficial for me (I would not consider myself an expert in pre-war, but pretty close in modern autographs and occassional post-war), whenever someone posts an autograph example questioning whether it's authentic or not, I would love to see the OP's reasoning on their opinion, and when an expert or other members' come on stating 'yay or nay' on why they believe the autograph is good or bad by pointing out characteristics proving so.

Why? Because I want to learn as much as I can, and I know others do as well. This will help minimize the posts asking for opinions all the time, and will help in teaching us what we can look for and pass on those traits to other collectors.

We have invaluable knowledge here on this site, and I love how we share opinions in the first place, me personally, I would love to get more familiar with Babe, Mantle etc, etc. to help myself as well as others.

Cheers,

Brent
