I think it is pretty neat, it gives me good solid examples (I hope?) to compare to when buying autos - and I can look it up on tablet or phone - for me being mobile it is a solid resource.

We would all hope but hoping doesn't make something real. I can tell you the Robert Fitzsimmons is not a genuine autograph.

It is in the hand of his wife and this example certainly helps explain why I was sued over a silly PSA/DNA rejection letter regarding Fitzsimmons autograph and had to drive 4hrs and 15min to get a ruling in my favor. How do you authenticate a real autograph when you have non-authentic exemplars in your files?

It could also be an indication why PSA/DNA does not respond to questions about their authentications as you can find here in post #20.

From a company that makes this statement on their web site:
"When it comes to collectibles, a seller's reputation is of paramount importance. Those with the best reputations have their collectibles graded and/or authenticated by PSA. If you are known as a seller who does not, your credibility may suffer. Buyers will ask questions and speculate as to your reasons why"

It's interesting that potential buyers of a Rocky Marciano signed item authenticated by you, PSA/DNA, and estimated at $25,000 are now asking you questions yet you are silent and nowhere to be found. And yes, we are now speculating as to your reasons why?

By the way, this Robert Fitzsimmons autograph was authenticated by PSA/DNA and sold through an auction site that is owned by someone listed as an authenticator on their web site. Hammer price $1789.76 Conflict of interest? Favortism?


A PSA/DNA wife signed Robert Fitzsimmons?


Or a real Robert Fitzsimmons autograph?
