There were many other questionable items that Wolfers sold besides jerseys.
Duane Garrett was a major art collector, sports memorabilia collector and political fund raiser. He did commit suicide by jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge.
I really don't know if the stories about bogus auctions and his suicide were connected, but stories were prevalent in the hobby prior to his suicide, about his auctions being questionable. One of the major news magazines had a full page story about his suicide. He left behind a wife and two teenage kids.
