Cee Gee, could you please have a look at the baseball graphs in the new thread about rare names starting at 99 cents. I hope if these are fake ebay will remove them, as the Ruth items are getting bid up pretty high already. Thanks for your time

Hey CeeGee,
Not sure if you are a Ramones fan but there is a signing by Tommy Ramone at the B&N on Warren St. in Tribecca next week on 3/30. I just talked to a person there to see if they could ship me a book but there was no guarantee.

Hi, Cee Gee,
I haven't heard from any other collectors on Autograph Live, but a local Tiger collector who has many Upper Deck certified Woods autographs feels that my signed magazine is authentic.
Thanks. Pete
