Wow you see the "T" in Truly in the Letter? A whole different style...Enough of your examples and remarks...It is what it is and You can keep your vaulted opinion and work for PSA.

yes, but you can see that style T elsewhere too, he had two different styles, your RR's are one of a kind.

now go to the autograph forum and ask a simple question.


"If you had a boxing autograph and wanted an expert opinion about the accuracy of a boxing autograph only and could only go to one person, would you ask Travis Roste, or JSA?

see what responses you get? you won't do it. You will not ask that question. We know why you won't ask that question.

2. You Are NOT a Certified Autograph Authenticator
3. You have Flat Out Lied about me asking your Opinion 7 months ago, at best manipulated my offer to sell the piece to you...
Get this...I am NOT interested in what you have to say! Period...

Leon, are you SURE this was a smart idea? There is more arguing and fighting now, than when it was all in one section.

Why don't you guys privately discuss this? THANK GOD I don't deal in high end autographs. It seems you have Expert A, Alphabet guys B and C and everyone is on a different page.

What a mess.

I don't normally concur with Travis's opinions on things, but after looking at about 8 years worth of sales from Bob's auctions, I think he's spot on with this one.

Here are a couple Corbett's from 1892 which I'm confident are real. The letter that has been posted is undoubtedly signed by Corbett but the heading and content are secreterial and in another hand. Instead of a small case "t" he used a capital "T" in "Truly" as is the case with the two posted here. The person who penned the content of the letter is more apt to have signed your Corbett rather than Corbett doing it himself. The "C" in the last name of the person the letter was addressed to is similar to the "C" in your "Corbett". Also the backwards 3 style "e" in "Rochester" is similar to the "e" in yor "Dec". I can't find the backwards 3 style "e" in any of Corbett's writings. I watched the offered Corbett end cheaply on Artfact and would have wacked it pretty good if it had the supporting evidence.

+1

it went cheap at the auction house (especially as it was suppose to be signed as champion) and more than one long time collector or dealer would have bid more on it had they believed it to be real.

here it is, it went for a whopping 258 dollars, now it is suppose to be worth 1500?

It didn't fly beneath the radar either, many boxing people knew it was being auctioned, they just stayed away. If it had the confidence of boxing collectors and dealers it would have went for at least 700+ if not more as it was suppose to be signed AS CHAMPION.
