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

[RichardSimon]

You are right David, it is his and he can keep it or go further with it.
However I think people on this board will judge the autograph and his statements by his action or inaction. If he does not care, that is his perogative.
Most have already judged the autograph, if he wants to try to change some minds he can go further. If he does not want to change people's minds than he can do nothing and stand by all his prior statements and people will judge accordingly.

Donavon,

do you have the identical williams sigs you promised a month ago?


i think this whole deal is a big stonewall. can you show the cobb cut with a current newspaper so we know you got it back as you claim?

certainly psa has sent it back to you by now?

[RichardSimon]

I am sure Donavon is a busy man but you would think that by now he mght have taken a moment to respond further to this thread.
I guess he has no adequate response about the Ty Cobb cut and the mystery story of the amazing forger will have no further explanation.
Donavon if you have been too busy to respond here,we understand. But we are hopeful that a response will be forthcoming at some time in the near future.
In the meantime I am glad I don't own an autograph that resides in a plastic tomb.

Amen to that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Donavon will not do anything. he promises but then renegs. it was all in the can from the beginning.

Still looking forward to those ted williams sigs 5 weeks after he promised them. He claims he is busy and that is suppose to be an excuse until the end of time.

If I knew how to do it and was authorized,I would be happy to do it.
I suggest you send a PM to a mod or to Leon.

It is my opinion that the cut was never sent back to PSA/DNA to begin with. I think the whole story was concocted. If it were true, they would have already removed the cert from their database by now.

A few years ago, the card pictured below was listed on eBay and was the topic of a thread on the PSA boards. Yes, PSA really graded that card a 10. Of course all the PSA apologists wanted to make excuses such as it was a mechanical error or the card was switched out, blah, blah, blah. PSA contacted the dealer and wanted the card back. If I remember correctly, PSA and the dealer couldn't agree on terms and the seller refused to give it back. So, PSA simply removed the card from their database - kind of like sweeping the problem under the rug. I don't know where the card is today or if PSA ever obtained possession of it, but my point is that PSA pulled the cert immediately because of the attention it drew. Likewise, they would have done the same thing in the case with the Cobb cut. I just don't believe the whole story.

Wow! Pretty amazing that it is still in the database of PSA.
I had not thought to check that out but that is eye opening.
What to think of Donavon now?
