I purchased my first autograph from an auction. It's postcard with Albert Einstein's formula and autograph. How rare is that type of item from Einstein? I've seen plenty of letters and such, but not too many "autographs." I know he was not all to fond of giving autographs. Just wanted to share.

Thanks

Richard

Either a pot of gold or a pot of ?

I just reviewed the autographs in Pot of Gold Estate's upcoming auction and most are certified by AAU/Drew Max. One has a JSA auction LOA: http://azfirearms.auctionflex.com/showlots.ap?co=10355&weid=0&a...

I recall a thread on Pot of Gold Auctions in the not too distant past. Maybe it was at Net54. The general consensus was it was a chamber pot of something... definitely NOT gold.

All the certificates I see dated between 2 July-2 Aug 2012 and range about 220 numbers. Amazing the garbage Drew Max authenticates. No picture but would love to see the Roberto Clemente/Jackie Robinson signed bat among others with no pictures.

AAU is a joke. Can't believe that idiot isn't in jail. Yet with the internet people continue allowing themselves to be ripped off.

Richard,

I showed your Einstein to John Reznikoff, who said he wouldn't buy or sell it. And considering how popular and easy to sell Albert Einstein is, that should give you a good idea of what he thinks of it.

Sorry. How long ago did you buy it? What are the auction's terms? Even if it says there's no guarantee, you still are entitled to a refund in my opinion.

Are you sure you don't want to show it to Jim Spence, too?
