John Rogers Archive Stickers

[Dewey]

Sellers and buyers. Scott, you have a story for all occasions. Ugh.

Appreciate everyone's take. The sticker shown is from a legit William C. Greene shot of Branch Rickey that I have. It is just sad to see Rogers' tainted imprimatur stuck on the back.

Write Ahole on the back and Draw a pencil arrow from it to the sticker. It might make you feel better. Be easy though.. don’t press too hard so it shows through the front

I have this Ruth rookie era 3.5” round photo that has the Rogers sticker on the back and was skeptical, it was sent to PSA and sure enough came back as a Type 1, could be blind luck that he put that on there, but it is genuinely a Type 1.

He would also put his fake Conlon and Thompson stamps on the back of legit Conlon and Thompson photos too. I think he did this to try and legitimize the stamps so they would pass standing alone on other photos. It is frustrating but like has already been said, judge the photo on its own merits and ignore the sticker, despite how shiny it is.

I have put in my time. My first experience with Rogers' stuff was when he cut up the Matty McIntyre photo album and sold it off a picture at a time, along with his accompanying certificate for each piece. Many of us were upset about it, but we also bought plenty of it as well - I still have four items. I think it would be great to 'reconstruct' the album virtually - I bet we could find over a hundred photos just from net54 members.

You guys could always write to John and ask him about this stuff. I am sure he likes to get letters at mail call. And if you know his inmate number you might be able to send him some commissary like I did for a wayward cousin yesterday...I hear ramen is pretty good on cold days and when you don't feel like going to the chow hall.

Hey, I had ramen this week, and it was great. I kind of feel about ramen the way the Barenaked Ladies feel about Kraft dinner:

If I had a million dollars we wouldn't have to eat Kraft dinner
(But we would eat Kraft dinner)
(Of course we would, we'd just eat more)

Darn, a 20 oz Coke is almost two dollars at Target.

What would I have to fake to get a day here and there to do some shopping?

I hate stickers - but at least these are on the back of the item. Not like many "autograph authenticators" who find it necessary (probably for their own ego) to put their sticker on the front of a photo, sometimes next to the signature!
