First of all, Beckett does not authenticate autographs-they have JSA do that for them, which I assume they did not do in this case. All beckett did was grade the strength of the signature-but they assumed it was authentic-which goes back to the original issue. If you give me Dr. Price's contact, I would be happy to contact him.

You may want to even list it on ebay, and get a quick opinion. I will even make you a deal-post the quick opinion for us to see I will reimburse you the $10 (assuming it doesn't come back as questionable-because you get a full refund if it does) either way-so you have nothing to lose! Ask people on the board, my word is good and you will get paid.

Just saw, this-I think Dr. Price and Beckett must get some things wrong from time-to-time. You really don't think this is real, do you?!

Obviously you can't see in your pic, but doing research online, the card does state on the back it is a wife signature.

Swing and a miss on this theory. Says right on the back who signed it

Your paying my $10 to put it on ebay? I don't understand.

My first instinct was that something was off as well, but I don't have it in hand so I won't say anything either way. Yes though, trading card companies make MAJOR mistakes on occasion. Probably the most famous cut card in history (the Topps 27' Yankees booklet, had to have a handful of signatures replaced because they ended up bad.

I believe what he is trying to say is that PSA/DNA provides a "Quick Opinion" service for eBay auctions (maybe others?). It's around a $10 fee for them to look at the eBay auction (which is why he told you to list it). So, I'm betting that's what he's referring to.

If it's comes back authentic (I'm not familiar with the sig so hence the "if") you would be able to send it in for the full authentication service and they subtract that Quick Opinion fee from the total.

List your item for free as a BIN and go to the PSA/DNA Quick Opinion, submit a request for said opinion, then he would reimburse you the fee.

Yes to above , provided you post it and it doesn't come back as unable to determine, as you would be reimbursed your money back regardless.

Is anyone in this thread interested in the card? Or are you simply questioning it? If it's the later, thanks for your thoughts. If there is interest, then I would certainly be willing to send it in to PSA/DNA.

Wouldn't you have the slightest concern about the authenticity towards this card? At least 3 people came on here about the question to the authenticity.

If it were me, I would like to get that all squared away if it's authentic before trying to move it. If not, you'll even have a worse mess on your hands. If it isn't, you would get a monstrous replacement in return I would bet.

If I knew 100% it wasn't a letter press I might be interested at $1500 or a trade

I'm actually not concerned about its authenticity. I would not have purchased it had I been. However, I'm more than happy to get it checked out by a 3rd party if someone needs it done in order to purchase.
