https://www.amazon.ca/Operation-Bull.../dp/B00C0HODPY The amazing true story of the high-flying national forgery ring that forged the autographs of sports stars and celebrities and ripped off the American public for more than $100 million, before being busted by a dramatic three-year FBI undercover investigation. As seen on ESPN, Tru-TV, and now being developed into a feature film.

John Henry Williams made his father sign at every waking moment towards the end. Mickey Mantle signed in insane numbers as well. Even DiMaggio was a volume signer. One of the reason sticking to early examples (outside of the autograph circuit) & unique items is probably a safer choice. Last edited by MrSeven; 10-14-2017 at 05:07 PM. |

Hi Irv, I admit I got a little overzealous with the 99% statement, no doubt there are a lot.

What’s amazing to me is I can’t even get my own signature to look the same every time.

If I was famous, I'd sign my name completely differently at times, including printed out (non-cursive) and in all-caps, just to mess with authenticators.

It worked with Chief Myers until they figured out it was him.

Never underestimate the power of ego, money, and a degree of sociopathic behavior.
