Sorry Karl, here is the term that was used by PSA according to a post by Don (in the BST thread):
"it seems that there is an amazing forger out there." they said amazing, I said master,,, I say tomato,,they say tomatoh,,,,etc.,etc. If I am guilty of exaggeration, well then I am sorry about that. And as for other comments in this thread by chad, if PSA examined this piece originally and deemed it authentic, then examined it again and realized what they did, don't you think that they dont want the entire hobby world to know that they blew it to an HP printer. Would they not prefer the hobby to think they blew it to an "amazing forger." (whose pen skipped in the exact same place that Cobb's did in the original 3x5 sig. in Ron's collection). I think that would be the very definition of a coverup and the coverup always turns out to be worse than the original mistake, just look at your history books. And I think it is pretty amazing that an "amazing forger" drops his best work in an estate sale, mixed in with some Goudey cards. Just the place where he can minimize his money. Where else has his work appeared??? If he is truly amazing and truly a human, then you would think that his work would be all over the hobby. If the forger is truly amazing and not a human perhaps there are many other examples of his work out there that have slipped into the hobby the same way that the Cobb cut has. I can hear the sound of hammers now, cracking open those plastic tombs.
