I have long maintined that these items are modern fakes. I am secure enough in my opinion and confident in the reasons that form the basis for the opinion that it makes no difference to me that cover stories or experts disagree or that they are offered in this or that big auction.... As my mom would say when someone suggested things be done differently than she had planned, "Shows how dumb you are."

If someone asks me to write a formal article detailing the reasons for my conclusion I might. Other than that, how auction houses and collectors interpret and price these items is strictly their business. If collectors wish to dismiss my opinion, I can live with it.
