Scott - I know this is getting repetitive at this point, but I'll say, once again, that love that Koufax signed ticket!

Thanks Mark. I really love the way the ticket turned out too.
I've actually owned the stub since the mid 1990's and it's one of my favorites in my collection.

It came out of a collection of 15 no-hit and perfect game tickets that I acquired and was the crown jewel. This same collection also contained a ticket stub from Jim Bunning's perfect game in 1964 that was vintage signed in ball point pen in the 1960's.

Got a scan?

Mark,
Here you go! I have posted this once before, BTW

Sorry this took long to respond..

The Rogers I got in person at a game the 3rd time he played for the Rangers (2004) I believe

The Cone I got in person when he was at a rehab assignment in Norwhich in 1996

The Martinez and Koufax could very well be fakes since I got them from a guy with some other baseballs.

The Bunning I bought at a show a while back, no cert so I got a good deal and it looks real good to me, issue is that the marker is fading...

Thoughts everyone?

Actually now that I think about it, I have a Tristar Cert for the Bunning I believe, I have to check.

Oh and the Felix I got in person at Seattle Mariners fan fest 2 years ago, got a hat signed by him too, if anyone wants to see that.

Isaac,
The Dennis Martinez is fine and is a nice example.

I mostly was concerned with the Rogers because I don't recall him signing like that. Since you got it in person, you should have no concern.

Bunning looks a little different that I've seen him sign, but it's unlikely that anyone would fake him since his sigs are readily available.

I don't have any experience with Felix Hernandez, so I can't comment on him.

Koufax is a commonly forged autograph, but I don't feel 100% confident commenting on yours, one way or another. You may want to have others give you their 2 cents.

Thanks for sharing your collection with us!

Isaac -

I stand corrected, and am happy to be proven wrong in this case. You can't beat an in-person signature, just goes to show how difficult this hobby can be sometimes. I agree with Scott that the Martinez is fine. No worries there.

You are lucky you got Rogers when you did. Someone must have really pissed him off at some point because he just stopped signing cold (except for big money of course).

Might want to double check the Bunning. It's on a China ball and I doubt Tristar would use one of those for one of their signings.
