The cut still showing up in PSA's database sure negates the theory that an amazing forger was at work on that Cobb cut.

but there was an amazing snowjobber or two at work.

If someone can get away with computer generating a Ty Cobb autograph cut, and then have PSA slab it, what else has that person gotten away with? I cannot believe that this criminal stopped at one Ty Cobb cut.

[travrosty]

exactly and that is why i believe he says psa said it was an original ink copy and not a laser print, because if they are caught certing laser prints, then how many others could there be out there if they cant tell the difference between a computer printer and a persons regular handwriting?

I think that is the question a lot of people would like to know the answer to, because having the autograph slabbed, it kind of shileds the autograph from closer inspection, and if it wasnt for ron k. noticing an exact copy of his autograph, this cobb could have floated around forever, being bought and sold under lucite without it ever being inspected closely and being found out.

I definitely would say Donavon is now "Gonavon", i doubt we ever see him again.

Good call Bilko,, I hope you are wrong but I think you are right.
I hope he did not sucker someone into paying him a grand for that Cobb.
The fact that it is still in PSA's database is the definitive answer regarding what Don did with the autograph.
I hope that if the autograph was sold that the buyer stumbles onto this thread.

Is there a chance that Donovan did have a legit Cobb signature in that case, removed it from the case and somehow was able to reseal the case with the questionable signature with the hope of resubmitting the cut sig that was originally in the case?

Is the only known image the one used on ebay when trying to sell? Although the case appears intact in the image, he could have enhanced the image.

Has that happened already Don?
Inquiring minds would like to know.
