I have no horse in this race, but a couple of things about the article.
Spence is no longer an employee. Orlando should have pointed that out.
The quote about the Ernie Banks game used bat seems out of context, or at minimum, lacking a pertinent pice of information - PSA/DNA authenticates and grades game-used bats, as well as autographs - unless the authentication was for an autograph, it would stand to reason that an autograph would not exist.
From an investment perspective PSA/DNA (this one really is a security) has always seemed appealling to me, but the timing has never been quite right, thus i've never moved any money there. After the Barron's article does its damage, along with whatever other media play this garners, the time might be just be right.
