So far, the only thing I've seen amiss on the Green Diamonds are the gigantic, UPC Code-sized, butt-fugly holograms.

From what I heard John Henry licked the back of those holograms to stick them on the pics .

For what its worth...I was in Crystal River Florida one day buying a collection , not far from Ted Williams house and out of the blue I got a call from John Henry , he wanted to know , and I quote "How do you know if an autograph is authentic ?" , I told him that its not something I can explain in a five minute phone conversation.

He got an attitude , and then asked me to come to HIM and explain it in more detail like it was an "obligation"

I said no problem is your Dad going to be there ?? and he said "No" and I said well in that case I won't be coming over unless you pay by the hour.....

He didn't like that too much and I vaguely remember him hanging up on me.

I'd be careful Jim, there may be an official filed document somewhere in Florida that says you are to be frozen when you die. Some guy named John Henry was nice enough to file it for you!

If Jim visits me to teach me how to authenticate autographs I promise him my dad will be there.

Darn, that beats me. All I could offer is booze, cigars and hookers.
