Posted By: Eric"but I appreciate everything the players here on the board are doing to try and clean the hobby up". I agree Chuck. It is finally great to see collectors take a stand. Whether you're into the hobby or not, this garbage needs to be taken out. As for other options for our bogus stash.....batting practice is a great idea for the baseballs. And drawing across the framed "signed" pictures, is another fantastic idea. I might just do that to my Maris framed piece, "authenticated" by non other then AAU. <img src="http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k14/crazylocomerk2/autograph%20junk/MarisCloseup.jpg"> And the lovely COA: <img src="http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k14/crazylocomerk2/autograph%20junk/MarisCOAClose.jpg"> J-U-N-K

Posted By: Dan BrettaI am not a big autograph collector...the only ones I collect are ones that people wouldn't fake anyway (Minor league team balls), but all this chatter has me wondering...my parents bought me a Nolan Ryan autographed ball somewhere around the late 1980's from the Sears catalog. I have long since lost whatever COA had come with the ball, but now I'm wondering if it's legit or not. Also my brother in law bought a Ted Williams autographed bat during the 1990's and I'm not sure where he got it...I'll have to ask him.

Posted By: Bill Panagopulos "I just have one more question on the signed beatles album covers. I can see a US cover signed in 64/65 going for a premium $40-75k, but what about a reissue white album signed by all four at different times from 1970-80? Does the 12 in existence thing include those types of albums or just the ones signed as a group in the 60's? Just curious." After making inquiries, far as I can tell only ONE American-issue album was "put-together", and it was a first run "White Album" signed in the 1970's that was sold privately abt 1997. In our opinion, it remains the only authentic signed "White Album" in existence.

Posted By: Chuck TapiaThat Maris is beautiful Eric. If only...Ah, forget about it. I can already see where Roger was starting to grow a Stache? It would be perfect for my handywork of adding Mustaches to all my fakes. Maybe you could post a picture of Christopher Morales and I could draw a Mustache on him instead? Or beter yet, I can kick him in the nuts, and call it a day.

Posted By: johnShelly, Everyone knows Randy. The other guy used to be an antiques dealer in Memphis. He handled the liquidation of the Rock N Roll museum in Memphis several years ago. He used to have open consignment auctions 8-10 years ago in Memphis. He sold cards, antiques, tractors, autographs, and about anything else you can think of. He hasn't had one of those in 8 years or so. They went way down hill the last few he had and i think that's why he stopped having them. He sold his business several years ago and last I saw he is still an autioneer, just auctions big farms and large tracts of land.

Posted By: Bill PanagopulosI see a number of changes. And I see only ONE specific reference to any education in determining the authenticity of autographs, namely his stint with the Secret Service: "Special Agent/Examiner of Questioned Documents. U.S. Secret Service, Washington, DC Assigned to Washington field office, where responsibilities included investigative and protective work. Responsible for full range of investigative techniques and practices, including: participation and management of criminal investigations of violations pertaining to fraud, forgery, counterfeiting, and threatening remarks or activities against the President of the United States and other Secret Service protectees; detaining, arresting and interviewing suspects; report preparation; and court preparation and testimony". That's a lot of things to do. How much time was spent studying handwriting and forgery, and how much time was spent doing such work on the job with the Secret Service? Also, this cryptic notation at the very bottom of his resume, no employer named: "Examined all evidentiary aspects of financial crimes and fraud, including handwriting and hand printing comparison, typewriting examination, as well as examination of counterfeit currency and credit cards, government checks and other government obligations, during detail at Forensic Sciences Division as Questioned Document Examiner. February 1985 to July 1989". Forensic Services Division of what? FBI? Secret Service? CIA? Where? What? How? Twice Mr. Morales declares himself a "Questioned Document Examiner" or "Examiner of Questioned Documents". Is he allowed to use that title? Can I use that title? Anyway, I see absolutely no other reference to any education in the field of autograph authentication. None. The course completion certificates, the establishing of laboratories overseas, "threat coordination", selecting staff for the Haitian National Police Academy, training programs in serology, etc. etc. are all very good and certainly commendable, but ARE NOT RELEVANT TO AUTUGRAPH AUTHENTICATION. Mr. Morales - all of this can be settled if you will accept my invitation to a public forum to defend your authentication practices. See above. This is the second time I'm making this offer.

Posted By: EricShelly, That Maris gem was purchased on Ebay in July 2004. I purchased it from an individual with the user name: torigolf. Back then all this garbage could be sold on Ebay. Probably someone that realized it was a fake, so they sold it to the novice autograph collector (me). I think I paid close to $700 for it in an auction format. So it fooled a few people.

Posted By: DDAre the AAU guys also on the list of certified forged document specialists. Drew Max? Sounds like one of Homer Simpson's bosses. His accreditation includes apprenticing under his boss who is now retired (Howard Doulder). he also states he is a diplomate with the American Board of Forensic Examiners, even though his resume (<a href="http://www.aaunlimited.net/drew_v__max.htm" target="_new">http://www.aaunlimited.net/drew_v__max.htm</a>) does not indicated one of the following requirements to be a diplomate: Certified Forensic Consultant, Certified Forensic Nurse, Certified Forensic Accountant, or Certified Medical Investigator®. Could be an oversight. Could also be with these non-mainstram, specialist organizations, that no one has either verified their credentials, or checked to see if they employ them in the manner they were trained to do so. Also from the AAU site is this beautiful piece of work: BEWARE OF DEALERS WHO ALSO DO AUTHENTICATIONS & OTHER SO-CALLED UNQUALIFIED &/OR INACCURATE EXAMINERS It is logical and expected for autograph dealers to examine and attempt to authenticate merchandise they are buying for future resale, after all this has been done for years. It is illogical and unethical, If not deemed illegal, for any dealer to examine, for a fee, any of their competitors autographs. Just think of the possible everyday occurrence that could lead to the impropriety where your Babe Ruth autograph is deemed to be not authentic but they just happen to have an authentic one for you at thousands of dollars of profit to them; or do they down grade it and offer you a fraction of what it is worth? Does a diamond dealer take his diamonds to one of his competitors for grading and appraisal? Does Ford submit a Mustang for road testing to GM? Would you submit your autographs, for examination, to one of your competitors? Of course not, it would be ludicrous! THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST IS MIND BOGGLING FOR YOUR BUSINESS AND THE INDUSTRY AS A WHOLE!

Posted By: Bill PanagopulosDD: Well spoken! But we are doing nothing more than stating the obvious. BTW the link you posted was disabled within a matter of moments was taken down. Any surprise? The conflict of interest issue is old new: Authenticators consigning to auctions who employ their services as authenticators, with the crooked ones very likely passing their crap over the legitimate autographs consigned. What an (unsurprising) shock that Mr. Morales and his associates have suddenly revised their resumes. Coincidence? Great timing, anyway. That being said here we go again: THIRD REQUEST: Mr. Morales: Your website states, verbatim: QUOTE "An Open Challenge As noted herein, I will meet anyone in a public forum to review and assess my work efforts. Since private communications are often cherry picked to bolster a point of view, at times misdirecting the facts, it is my position that any meetings and communications be conduct in the open. If anyone desires to contact me concerning an open forum, please do not hesitate to call, email or otherwise contact me at anytime". UNQUOTE Mr. Morales, I hereby challenge you to appear, before a group of your peers in the autograph authentication trade and the international press, to: a.) Discuss your "forensic" methods of authentication, and your education and qualifications, using exemplars or otherwise; b.) Describe in detail other criteria you used to authenticate the thousands of various autographs for which you have issued certificates; c.) explain your relationships, if any, with the various consignors, auction houses, galleries, etc. for whom you authenticate, and; d.) assess your work efforts, ie: how have your authentications been received in the autograph market, as a whole. If you wish to limit the discussion to your "work efforts" alone, I would expect your peers would still meet with you, depending on the agenda. I will pay your airfare and hotel room expenses for your attendance at such a forum in the New York area, for a meeting within the next 60 days. As stated above, I expect you would be asked to respond to inquiries from your peers, that is, knowledgeable, recognized dealers of the same material which you have authenticated. Should the location not be convenient for you, I'm sure we can arrange a meeting in Falls Church. Mr. Shelly Jaffe has already graciously agreed to attend, as has Mr. Frank Caiazzo. I assume that this email will reach you, since I do not have your emali address. If anyone posting to this site can confirm delivery to Mr. Morales, I would be much obliged. B. Panagopulos PS Shall I assume that your silence in response to this message means you decline my offer?

The Secret Service was formed as a response to counterfeiters. Even today, it still falls under their purview. I'm sure they will be glad to find out how making money from authenticating counterfeit objects, while touting the skills obtained from them, is how at least one person makes his living in this country.

Posted By: johnBill, I'll be in the office late tonight or early tomorrow. I'll get you the scans of the Beatles album and other Beatles signatures then. Thank you for offering your opinion. I really just wanted your opinion. For privacy purposes, I don't want it passed all over the industry. You have a lot of their signatures in your last auction and even more in your recent past sales so I assumed the opinion would be yours. If not yours, who's? I can just send it direct to them. Thank you again, very much.

Posted By: Bill PanagopulosJohn, As I've said before, I am by no means a Beatles expert, and as a rule I depend on the opinions of those who are experts. I can detect the poorer fakes, but the quality of those that come out nowadays is excellent. And unlike some forensic examiners, I cannot be a master of thousands of different signatures! I'll be happy to have some of those folks take a look at your album. If their opinion is unanimous one way or another, I think we'll know what's up. Who authenticated yours?

Archive · #**537** 02-21-2008, 06:36 AM

Posted By: Bill PanagopulosAnd John - If you want to send your Beatles material directly to an expert for authentication, I can only recommend Frank Caiazzo as number one, and Roger Epperson as number two. A Caiazzo certificate certainly makes your item more valuable, but both appraisals will cost you money.

Posted By: Bill ToddWith all the Web addresses flying around here, many of them here and then gone in a flash, I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the Wayback Machine. Go to www.archive.org, type the URL you're looking for into the Wayback Machine window at the top, and viola. You'll get snapshots of the page dating back as far as the site existed, and intermittently up to roughly six months ago. The site isn't in trouble; it's just that their archives run about six months behind. You would likely not be able to find a specific auction, for example, but you would be able to get to the site of an auction house. A couple examples: The most recent snapshot of FSA is August 24, 2007. The Drew Max resume has snapshots running between October 2000 and December 2004. Happy hunting! Bill

Posted By: shelly jaffeI listed a gentleman by the name of Jerry Richards. His name was given to me by the dean of forensics at GWU. He is ex FBI and has the title of Question document examiner. Gerald B. Richards, M.S. Adjunct Instructor of Forensic Examination of Questioned Documents Mr. Richards is a Forensic Examiner of Questioned Documents and Photographs, as well as a lecturer and consultant. He is owner of Richards’ Forensic Services and a former Associate Professorial Lecturer at The George Washington University. His educational background includes a Bachelor of Science degree in Photography, an M.S. in Education degree from Southern Illinois University and completed additional studies at The George Washington University and the University of Virginia through the FBI Academy. Jerry Richards Jerry Richards is one of the country's leading experts in both the examination of questioned documents and questioned photographic evidence. As the recently retired head of the FBI Laboratory's Special Photographic Unit and former head of the Document Operations/Research Unit, he brings with him the latest skills and techniques of the world's foremost forensic laboratory. In fact, Jerry’s forensic analysis and testimony in the cases of John Walker and Jerry Whitworth played a significant part in the convictions of America’s worst spies. In addition, document examiners around the world have benefited from the Video Spectroscanner invented by Jerry over his long career. He has also become a highly sought-after speaker and lecturer to groups both within and outside the government. I talked with Jerry and he was very helpful. If it comes down to asking Morales questions that we might not know to ask, he would be a big help.
