HOF Autograph Collectors....

[whyconform]

GC Alexander and Comiskey are my top 2 wants to get to 220, then I'll be content lol..

This guy has a lot, but I am not sure if some are real as he has some rarities..... Maybe some can chime in on autos they think may be fake from this collection...

Bill,

Some of those (a lot of the rare ones) look just horrible. I would say 75-90% of the cuts are bad along with the Cobb, Ruth and the Hilton Smith (It is like a mix of Hilton Smith and a Turkey Stearns signature). I wonder if he paid more than $100 for that Josh Gibson.

I have never been to that forum before, but well aware of it's existence.

Moral of the story, know who you are buying from and do your research.

Agreed. He has some nice stuff and a few rarities that look legit to my quick glance (Bill Foster comes to mind), but most of his cuts look WAYYYYY off to me.

The Evers and Mathewson cuts are straight laughable.

Indeed. I also doubt his Billy Hamilton. Not because it looks fake to me, but because it is so damn rare that I haven't even researched it, and he's got so many other Coaches' Corner specials that I won't even give it another look.

I hope he enjoys his collection and never tries to sell it...

Most of the one's, other than the commons, look real bad. Looks like someone shopped at CC.
