Awful signature....

A buddy of mine on Facebook did some great detective work on this one. I bought this very recently from T206collector. Despite probably having one of his worst days in awhile, he is a total stand-up guy and has already refunded me.

Card originally sold here in July:http://auction.aacsautographs.com/it...QFSUPRZEaFHwKA

Then sold to T206collector here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/LARRY-DOYLE...-/263825275600

Hmmm...the doctor/Forger attempted to change the appearance of the card by adding creases/damage before forging the autograph...good thing these cards are like fingerprints.

They put quite a bit of extra wear on that one. Holy smokes.

Wow this is getting crazy!

I’m not involved in T206 autos and am still pretty new to the forum. But it’s pretty clear that these third party graders do absolutely no real forensic analysis about these signed cards if board members can identify forgeries within hours.

In all seriousness, some of the guys here who are most adept at this should start their own grading service. After reading this great work, I do think that would restore confidence.

I’m getting nervous about my modern autos...

Also (2) Doyles and a Carrigan

All 3 of those sigs look completely different from one another yet all 3 were certified as authentic?

This was a great, although very sad, read.

Just glad this site continues to prove over and over again, that if a person wants to know something, this is the site for it.

Great detective work everyone!

As soon as somebody offers up a 5 or 10K cash reward, somebody will snitch.
Its just a matter of time.

In the mean time. I got my popcorn and my goobers. I love this movie

I remember looking at a T206 Livingstone American Beauty 350 that was signed on the reverse this past summer at the National.

It's a shot in the dark, but did anyone happen to grab a picture of it by chance?
