Jackie Robinson Signature Real?

Sorry but I wouldnt trust any signature unless it was done in front of me personally. So that eliminates most people. Thats what its come to now in the world of sports autographs.

Certainly your right to feel that way. But I would disagree that "that is what it has come to". At least if you do your homework anyway.

The sad state of the industry because of rampant fraud. Thats all. Autos used to be for kids and had little worth other than sentimental. Now that its such a huge business its become a mess in multiple ways.

It happens to many things. Jefferson Burdick, the American Grandfather of Collecting, hated that his beloved cards had any value at all. He did the best he could to never equate them to a monetary value (he always kept his valuations extremely low for that reason). Just as cards aren't as much a kid's hobby anymore so aren't many autographs.

Autographs and signatures have always been collected by adults. I don't know where the notion they are strictly for kids comes from.

Also just to get people talking. It makes the board more interesting. Kind of like the guy complaining about people jacking up prices and him wanting Beckett to regulate pricing. That post was multiple pages within 24hrs.
