James,
If you want to do an episode about autograph fraud in the sports memorabilia business, I and some friends of mine would be happy to speak to you.
I do not have any specifics about Mastro.

I have only ever wanted to have two autographs in my life. One is of Manny Sanguillen, who was my hero when I was a kid. I have three autographs from him. The other is J. Bob "Battleship" Kelly, who is my all-time favorite Penguins player. I believe I have two autographs from him, but they were not signed in person, as was the case with Sanguillen, so I am not sure. Outside of these two I have never wanted for an autograph because it is my opinion any idiot can sign a name unless they are unfortunate enough to be illiterate. My lack of interest in autographs and the first part of the last sentence are why I stay away from the autograph side of the hobby.

I don't understand your logic - unless you're referring exclusively to buying autographs second-hand. Would I be correct in presuming that your opinion does not apply to getting autographs in person?

Default American Greed episode about Mastro Auctions
Hi Everyone -

Thank you so much for your interest and responses. I think the show came together very well. In fact, we're moving up the airing. Look for it on CNBC on August 21st, 10pm ET/PT.

Any idea if "American Greed" airs in Canada?

I'd also like to watch it.

James,
The Mastro story pales in comparison to how much has been stolen in the autograph business.
I want to reiterate what I said earlier, if you want to do a story about that please contact me.
