Pawn Stars: Lou Gehrig "Signed" Jersey

I am an I.A.T.S.E Stagehand and know for a fact that a lot of the so called "Reality" shows are anything but "Reality". I have a friend who is a stagehand for the STORAGE WARS show and he told me that a lot of the unbelievable items they find in those storage units are planted there. They have to do it to make the show interesting. Nobody wants to see those guys bidding on those units only to find boxes of dirty laundry and raggedy furniture!! Remember, in show business, you can't believe everything you see!!

If you have any questionable Autographs with ANY COA go to Gold and Silver in Vegas for a great deal!!

Yeah..I SAW that episode and wondered why the guy was willing to take 3,000 for the ONLY known (?) Lou Gehrig jersey...but to be honets the autgraph DOES look good t ome--I didnt get to see a close up or inspect it--but from afar..it appears real...but 3,000 ? a singed BALL is worth that in PSA 5 quality

Although TV is TV and you can't believe all you see, its ashamed that one respected as much as the History Channel doesn't see the flaw in free advertising  for authenticators such as STAT, as "Rick" the Pawn Star resident "expert" slowly displays this shameless companies "COA" and verbally validates the certificates he looks at ! Anyone looking at possibly buying something with similar certificates are now one more step closer to believing in its legitimacy ! STAT sucks !! I say this from experience as I had bought an item with their branding and it cost me dearly in dollars and embarrassment ! And even though I knew that the Gehrig  jersey was fake, I did get a little excited seeing this historic event unfold in front of my eyes...for $3000.00.  Thanks History Channel AND Pawn Stars for proving to me once again "Caveat Emptor !"

Yes he is right on most of the time. Most of them are such bad forgerys that it is hard to believe that anyone would even look twice at the items let alone bid or buy on of them. I was only stating that although he means well he is sometimes quite wrong. I guess we all have our days tho.

Or the best one - #583 - photo of the White House signed by Ford, Carter, both Bushes, Clinton and OBAMA. Zero bids.

Just looked at Coaches Corner auction. Every item looks like a forgery and the pricers reflect it - Babe Ruth hand-signed bat - $ 225, John Adams signature - $ 158, Abe Lincoln signed receipt - $ 311, Thos. Jefferson hand-written letter - $ 134, JFK autographed picture - $ 50. Enough said.

Coches corner means well but many times he is way off on his thoughts. Example is a Michael Jackson book that he once stated as being the worst looking example he had ever seen. This example he was showing at the time was a preprinted example that is printed in the book Moonwalk by the publisher. Granted it was not hand signed or autographed but he continued to say how bad the example was and how wrong it was. Truth is it was perfect. This was an exact copy of how Michael Jackson had once signed his name and it is similar to many other known examples which he as been known to sign. Again I can still say that the person selling the preprinted example either did not know it was printed or was trying to take some unknowing buyer for a ride but it is one of many times that the coach has struck out.

Coach's Corner has an other Lou Gehrig-signed jersey in this month's auction, Morales certified. It's at $99 now. http://www.myccsa.com/Lot.aspx?LotID=210109

Chuck--you're right, 327 was stock. I think the 396 was the biggest option for Impala wagons. Chevy had the 409 Ford killer (remember the Beach Boys' She's real fine, my 409?) but I think that was only in the 2-door. I don't think the 350 came out until 1969. I had one in a '73 Vette I bought in the early 1990s.

Man I sound old...give me a swig of that Geritol.
