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?

Anyone contact PSA and ask them if they received it or not. If he did never send it in, watch it be sold then.

I doubt if PSA would reveal that kind of information to a stranger on the telephone.
This whole thing is now fishier than ever.
We have our own little Cobb cut-gate here.
The aftermath always seems to be worse than the actual event.

While I believe that Richard and Travis (neither of whom I know) have the better side of this argument, the lesson for me is to avoid autographs altogether.

When an expert like David can be deceived by a Yankee ball with numerous (apparently) forged autographs, and a reputable (albeit imperfect) grading company can be deceived by a photocopy, it is time for mere mortals like myself to find another hobby.

Mark - I suggest you look at the "good news" autograph thread. That is why we autograph collectors collect.
It is very easy to amass a good collection, as I have said many times before.
Stay with the good dealers and chances are you can amass a quality collection with a very good chance of everything you own being authentic.
