Poll: Is this Cobb legit, or is it a "rotten peach"?

"The item, legally, belongs to Donavon."

Your direct quote from the BST thread. He doesnt want to send it to you or anyone. Let it go.

Yes, you can promise you wont sell it but what happens if you are robbed or when you pass away. Look how he got the signature, from a bulk sale. Frankly, I think he is doing the right thing by destroying it.

Is that a serious post?
Robbed?
When I pass away?
I am going to hold it for a day or two, did you think I was going to hold it for years? Huh? Why would I want to do that?
You quote my early post but why ignore the post where I said I would return it quickly to Donavon. Post#41, in this thread.
He got it from a bulk sale? He said he got it from an estate sale. And the master forger just dropped it into an estate sale with a bunch of Goudey cards?

So you actually thought that I might die with that cut????
That I was going to keep it for many years???
When I specifically said I wanted it for a short time you thought it could be robbed from me or that I would die with it????????
Wow!!!
What reason would I have had to keep it???

This whole thing is ridiculous. Its a fake, PSA messed up, it should just be dropped. But, to not trust someone like Richard or the mail is being a bit too paranoid mail wise, and just mistrusting of someone w a good rep.

I think it would have been dropped if PSA would have just said they messed up and certed an "autograph" that was made by a computer printer.

We just can't believe it since it is an exact, exact copy of Ron's Cobb signature so we would like to look for ourselves.

I think the 'lost in the mail' reasoning is ridiculous too, but it's just a way to make sure no one else sees it and can disagree with psa's assessment.

Any logical person would come to the conclusion that it's a photocopy of the original. There's no way that every nuance of the original signature could be perfectly replicated in that fashion.

Any disagreement here lies within the semantics of the "Master Forger" statement. Does "master forger" imply it was actually drawn by hand? Or that the forger possesses state of the art technology to replicate the signature onto another piece of paper (and make it look like ink from a pen?)

Any claim that it was hand-drawn is preposterous, as this is simply an impossibility. So for me, it comes down to a semantics issue (or an interpretation of PSA's wording).
