Default "Race card played in failure to sell Honus collectible"

Posted By: davidcycleback

"I want to find an authenticator of documents, not necessarily baseball cards, to verify this card as genuine."

A curious statement. If someone wants a baseball card authenticated, it's always a bright idea to avoid respected authenticators who specialize in baseball cards. By the same token, if you have a serious medical problem with your foot it's always a bright idea to avoid podiatrists and get your foot checked out by a dentist or allergist ... Also note that he does not say he wants to find an authenticator of documents so as to ask the authenticator whether or not the card is genuine. He says he wants to find an authenticator of documents who will say the card is genuine.

....

My question for the auctioneer would be, if he honestly feels that the hobby respected baseball card graders are not to be trusted to authenticate a T206 baseball card, why was he auctioning all those PSA authenticated T206 cards in the same auction?
