Richard - aside from the DOI, how many examples are known to exist? I remember reading at one point that there are three original letters bearing a signature. Are you aware of anything else?

Thanks for posting that article. Guess this helps answer my question: "According to Sotheby's, of the 51 known Gwinnetts, this is one of just eight from the year 1776 and the closest of all to July 4th. "

I don't know how many are known to exist. He was shot and killed in a duel just 9 months after signing the Declaration.
Amazing how the Roaches keep turning up such amazing stuff. --

A little known fact is that 2 months before he was killed in that duel, he and the other declaration signers did a show with Roaches Corner (then known just as The Roaches). Many items were signed, including several Betsy Ross prototype flags, deer skins and game used muskets. To make sure everything was legit, they used the law office of Dewey, Cheatum and Howe and everything was authenticated by Benedict Morales.

Well, that DOI signing is sold out, I think. Some custom signed items can still be made up .. I mean available..haha, if you contact the sewer rats at the Corner.
Anyways, thanks for someone starting a new Roach's thread, as Ive had major personal issues lately, and lost track of time. Now, HOW IN HEAVEN CAN THEY EXPECT ANYONE WITH HALF A BRAIN TO BELIEVE THIS IS REAL? COME ON ![]() http://www.myccsa.com/Lot/212/1919-2...-baseball.aspx To this next one, a big YEAH RIGHT. looks like it was just done its so bold and so fake: http://www.myccsa.com/Lot/212/lou-ge...-baseball.aspx When you click this one on, the picture actually is SMALLER. Nice way to cover up another pathetic disgrace http://www.myccsa.com/Lot/212/george...ument-cut.aspx Oh, and check out lot 30. One of the rarest and most highly sought after signatures of the 20th century, and they have TWO in the first 30 lots. I mean, REA, Hunts, Legendary, Lelands, and all the other big auctions, why bother, you can NEVER EVER compete with the pipeline that the Corner has (Mind you, Im not saying whats inside the pipes...) Plus, the awful Ruth/Gehrig bat, a solo Gehrig Bat, another in the assembly line of fake Beatles signed albums and more and I haven't even left page one ![]() Last edited by GrayGhost; 10-15-2010 at 07:55 AM.

Richard, it's obvious to me, they just use their time machine to go back and personally get these things autographed, why is that so hard for you to understand and respect?
