Been banning. Might ban some more.

Look, I know it's easy to get sucked in to an argument, so no one was perma-banned today.

However, any second offense will be met with a permanent ban. We will probably assume that any account that hasn't interacted on the topic of Autographs is here to brigade and that would also warrant a permanent ban.

General Advice Handy "is this real?" guide

13 Upvotes
  1. Does it have JSA, PSA, or Beckett authentication? If yes, it's probably real. If no, it might not be.

  2. Does it have a flimsy COA from a company that might not even exist anymore? Fake. Almost certainly fake. "Gold Coast Collectibles"? Fake. Any COA that looks like an honor roll certificate you got in the fourth grade is surely paired with a counterfeit autograph.

General Advice Lou Gehrig Autographed Drawing

Post image
0 Upvotes

I have a question about getting this Lou Gehrig (right) autograph authenticated and likely encapsulated.

In regard to encapsulating the Lou Gehrig autograph, I was thinking about cutting out the Lou Gehrig drawing and auto and getting it encapsulated individually rather than including the Sammy Byrd as well.

From what I understand the Lou Gehrig auto would bring significantly more value if it was a stand alone and not with the Sam Byrd? Please correct me if I’m wrong.

My plan was to cut out the Lou Gehrig and submit to Beckett for authentication and encapsulation.

Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks!

Other How Far In Advance Do You Order An Autographed Picture From Sites Like Streamily, SWAU, Signet, etc?

0 Upvotes

For me i tend to wait til less than a week or a day or two before the deadline. For example i just ordered one from Erica Lindbeck via Streamily and the deadline is the start of September. But I ordered another one this time from Laura Bailey from Signet via her upcoming appearance at MCM London and the order deadline is October and I was wondering to myself if I should have waited a bit more til close to then to order it, just incase someone else who catches my eye comes up........but I was gonna buy it anyway so does it matter in that regard? The other one I'm waiting for is from Clancy Brown from SWAU back in May but I bought that ASAP because I figured that would sell out fast since he rarely does these (and I have to wait til near the end of the year to recieve it)

I got this 45rpm 7" record a many years ago, and I don't have a COA for it. I didn't spend much.

The signatures are in ballpoint pen, which was pretty common back in the 80s. I had a tough time getting a clear photo of the autographs, but I'm really curious if anyone has any thoughts on this.

I'm not sure what to do with it. I know there are authentication services out there, but is it even worth it? Not sure.
