You�re right. I�m trying to deflect because you have me all tied up with your genius ramblings. I�m going to go lay by my dish completely defeated.

How can you say it's so easy to make these forgeries? People were fooled for years in some cases. And not just the TPA's, but people who have been in the hobby for a very long time and might consider themselves experts in this very specific area.

Lots of dummies in this hobby. Lots of dummies in this hobby who seem to want to be fooled. Lots of dummies in this hobby who appoint themselves as experts.

Again to the point of why I don't collect autos. As a kid, the fact that a card was "old" was cool enough for me. Look at this thing that came out of a pack 30, 50, even 75 years ago! At least for items like tobacco cards or Goudeys, it seems a little too good to be true for all of those that are coming out now to have been autographed as well. But to the points made earlier - people get all romanticized about something and can lose reasonable objectivity. I get it.

there are artists who would not have much problem at all replicating the shaky signatures of men in their 70's and 80's.
