The name of the person I know has been presented to David before. He knows the name, he is just busting chops here.
And David could do nothing to that person now anyway. The statute of limitations, I am sure, has long expired on some crime like this. And he bought it in an auction, that is where he would have to take action.
This person's whereabouts are unknown, which is why I asked about him.
I was just offered an extraordinarily rare HOFer autograph and was concerned about it though it had much about it to like. It was shown to Ron Keurigian (sp?) and he said it was no good, so I immediately dropped out of the bidding. The idea popped into my head that the one peson that I knew who was good enough to pull this off was Johnny F---. So that is why I asked about it.
