Posted By: <b>DJ</b><p>There was only this case of an item with a signature that was produced after the subject passed. This sold for over $3,000.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.gameuseduniverse.com/vb_forum2/showthread.php?t=332" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.gameuseduniverse.com/vb_forum2/showthread.php?t=332</a><br /><br />Otherwise, very difficult to prove if Babe and Lou signed that item. Even if they were alive (probably selling for Steiner), would they care? Sports celebrities don't seem miffed about people reproducing their signature. So many sports celebrities can utilize the VeRo program and have a representative of theirs pull forgeries off the site. Cal Ripken and Steve Yzerman's people are relentless about keeping their clients "Ebay clean".<br /><br />I have also liked what I have seen as well on this thread. Where was this thread and this kind of passion years ago? <br /><br />The hobby is clearly in a cesspool-state and someone mentioned this before that it destroys the inventory (investment?) of those with honest pieces. It's kind of like having the world's greatest printer and being able to produce PSA10's at will. <br /><br />Glasses, you mind telling us who you are and who is behind the site? I doubt you will, but I'll take a shot in asking. <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br />What needs to be done is create something, anything that would help this hobby. But what? But how? <br /><br />DJ<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
