Ron Dross plaque-8x10 'Bobby Moore Collection'
Richard,
You are correct on all accounts about that despicable 'collection' of fake 8x10's and B&W plaques which was at one time attributable to a "Bobby Moore".....They still pop up from time to time and many have been authenticated once or twice or more by various companies and/or individuals....Tris Speaker was part of the plaque group. Others who could not be on plaques like Weiss, and Yawkey, and Goslin (who is rarely found on a plaque) were also part of the 8x10 hoard. Ron Gordon had a list of the original offering and provided me with a copy of it years ago, though not sure where it is presently, and I recall that all names were offered in large quantities like 20-25-even 30 available of individual items. The now defunct company, National Pastime, purchased a large chunk of the collection. One of the qualities that seems to be present on all the plaques I've seen is that they are 'snow-white'--as if there isn't a day of aging to them and they came right off the press--Kevin Keating

Snow white and right off the presses because they were kept shrink wrapped for years by the HOF and the store that bought them did not open the shrink wrap until they put them out on the store floor.
And you are right Bobby Moore rings a bell as the name of the front man.

Here's my Pie Traynor autograph that was signed in the 1960's, has the plain looking "T" in his last name.
