Hi! I'm new to this forum, a friend of mine said this would be the best place to come to for help.
I am an art collector, and came across an estate sale this weekend with pieces of art fetching over $10k. In one room there was a ton of baseball memorabilia and unfortunately this is not my area of knowledge so I just picked up the pieces related to the Yankees picked with Steiner COA/LOA taped to the back of the frame (jeter, babe ruth, mickey mantle, a-rod clemens) and this piece in question Mickey Mantle Willie Mays Duke Snider signed photo.
This one the owner claimed there was a COA/LOA that was taped to the back of the frame originally but we were unable to find it in the vicinity of the area this piece was stored. I did see the yellowed out tape residues on the back of the frame justifying his claim there was a COA/LOA attached but it fell off and went missing at some time. He said the photo he paid about $500 from a reputable dealer in NJ
What do you guys think? If its real, where should i send this to, to get a COA/LOA?
Thanks in advance!
Michael
