I find autograph authentication to be an absolute joke. In one of the major auctions last year there were many Ruth auto's. They were so different that there was no way the same person signed them. All were deemed good by the same "so called" expert in auto's. I have watched some of these so called experts in action at shows. Seems the people they know get anything they want passed, while strangers to them always seem to have bad auto's. The major thing is it is only their oppinion, yet they are treated as though they are true experts and have some way to communicate with the dead to see if the item was signed by them. To me they are the lowest of the low in the hobby. Frank
