Stuff like that has been done many times to give false provenance to an item.

Interesting post, guys.
Any tell-tale signs on the actual signature that would give it away that it's a forgery? At first glance to me, it looked close to most of the Cobbs I've seen, so I'd like to learn from the old school masters here. |

Here is an uncancelled Roy Pitts TTM GPC, slabbed by PSA:

Same GPC with a very similar signature sold for $960 at REA just a couple of months ago, with a JSA LOA: https://www.robertedwardauctions.com...cut-signature/

Not sure why OP would tear this up Looked to be a very good Cobb!!

Isn't this the same piece with a JSA letter? Note the damage near the stamp in the auction listing, it's faint in the OP's photo.
Not passing judgment on the piece, although I think all the Pitts collection autographs I had in past had rubber stamp return addresses or were hand written. http://www.albersheims.com/ty-cobb-s...n-lot5246.aspx |

Ty Cobb comparison
Years ago we purchased a Ty Cobb cut before authentication was available. When we took the cut to the National several dealers made the same comment, the Cobb was the best forgery they had ever seen, we did get our money refunded from the seller!
Comparing a PSA authenticated against the one questioned, to me the "C" in Cobb looks completely different. Question? Did his signature improved from the earlier authenticated signatures--sorry, but there are many bad Cobb auto out there in circulation! Last edited by Directly; 01-27-2024 at 06:17 AM. |
