Al Stump forged autographs and fake memorabilia

[TRC4191]

I am trying to assemble a collection of images of Al Stump forged signatures and of fake memorabilia he created. Most of what Stump did was Ty Cobb related, but he also did forgeries of Babe Ruth, Honus Wagner, Jim Thorpe, Connie Mack. Stump''s antics are now, thankfully, well known to the hobby. Stump also had many flea-market-obtained relics engraved, stamped, or otherwise enhanced with Ty Cobb's name or initials.

I have images of a lot of stuff already, but would like to ask forum members if they would share images if they have any. In particular I am looking for a good image of an Al Stump forged Ty Cobb baseball, and any Al Stump forged Ty Cobb letters. There are many of each that were sold into the hobby in the late 1990s and early 2000s.

Thanks in advance.

Ron Cobb
