I've long wanted to do an in person short course on authentication and forgery detection, but have never figured out the logistics as the collectors live all over the place. |

The National convention would be the logical place to do something like this. I believe SCDA will making a presentation at the National for anyone that is intereswed in how they authenticate items. Sessions by grading companies and how they do their grading would be good, as would David's suggestion of how to detect fakes. |

How about figuring out a side room to do such a seminar at the National? I am sure that would be well attended. |

From my personal experience, the beauty of an illustrated online presentation (like a website), is that folks you'll never meet from places you will never visit can read and learn and ask questions. The essential problem is that that, especially when involving a microscope or something on that order, I can never look at the same thing they are looking at and can never be really sure what they're really looking at. That person in Chicago is looking through a microscope, while I'm looking at the text of his email. In person together, things would probably be cleared up in like ten minutes as we would be looking at the same thing with the exact same microscope. |

was that several (read a lifetime) years ago I thought a seminar would be an interesting and useful venture. I also thought that combining it to be held either the day before the National or the day after, at the National's location would also be the best method of ensuring a reasonably good attendance. |

I would certainly be interested in attending something like this. I'm not sure if it makes sense to have it at the same time as a large event like the National or if it should be an event in and of itself. Detecting alterations and determining authenticity is a huge area and if something like this is done, it would be great to be an "A - Z" conference that could span a few days and really give you something to bring back with you. If it was something like that, I could justify the expense of traveling and conference fee (and would be very excited to attend). |

In theory it should get its own conference. The sad reality is that no one would show up, thus the need to tie to a major event like the National. At least then you will get people that are tired of walking around the floor and looking to take a break for awhile. |

somethiung like that: Mark would bring 4 or 5 cards and ask us all to comment on them, sometimes from a particular perspective, sometimes--he'd just hand them out and say, "Well?" |

I would really like to attend a seminar dealing with the issue of trimming and prewar cards. Just looking at the description of the Joe Jackson T210 card in the Robert Edward Auction reveals such phrases as " inferior cutting process" , slopping cuts that are unrelated to trimming", subtle inferior cut", "wear entirely inconsisitent with modern trimming" etc . I agree combining a seminar with the National makes sense. |

The National included all sorts of seminars as part of the events of the show. |
