I believe both Spence and Steve Grad "studied" under everyones favorite, Bill Mastro.
One can have all the experience in the world and it is all worthless if the person they are apprenticed under is not qualified themselves. remember, only perfect practice makes perfect. everything else is just practiced mistakes.
It is relatively easy to create these forgeries, but the "experts" seem to have a much harder time finding them. at some point, collectors at large will realize the "authenticated" signature is nothing more than a piece of paperwork, and really doesnt amount to a hill of beans

There's a ton of these vids available but as we have seen and learned, likely not many know these are available and should be watched before purchasing anything signed.
