Maris, Mantle, Tresh, Yankees Ball

Sadly, the listing of stuff like this has the tendency to hurt someone's reputation no matter what. Even if, and its a BIG IF, these were pulled by the seller, people remember that horrific stuff like that was listed to start with.

I've seen some of his stuff on ebay before and he had some excellent items. I don't get this at all.

I echo your thoughts, Scott. I don't get it either. I'm sure we would all like to hear from him.

I looked at his listings, they are quality items, and it seems he uses JSA a lot.
I do believe that JSA would never have authenticated these items.

He knows it would have been a waste of money to send that garbage to JSA. We've exposed some ugly autographs here at Net54 at times, but these are as horrific as they come.

Has anyone heard from Frank Prisco about his auctions? I am shocked that his garbage hasn't been removed by Ebay yet.

Frank? You out there?

I emailed Frank and he responded that he thinks the balls are good and if they don't pass authentication then he will refund the sale price. It was a fairly long email from him but he stands behind the balls. In my initial email to him I told him that even someone that doesn't know signatures, like me, thinks they look really bad. Here is a paraphrase of his response to me. It is cut and pasted and not taken out of context. I don't feel comfortable posting his whole email per the rules on the board. regards


"I'm not at the shop but the scans on the single signed look ok to me and the multi signed is on a Reach ball again who's putting tresh on that ball - if they fail as always I refund all monies - sounds like sour grapes because all the auction forgers being exposed -"

Leon - he uses JSA a lot.
Can you ask him why he did not use JSA on these baseballs?
