John Wayne autograph authenticate from Kenneth Walker "Autographs&More" http://kenneth.flyingcart.com/

Dear Autograph Collector's

One of my personal friends and customer purchased several autograph from the above mentioned seller.

Kenneth Walker "Autographs&More" http://kenneth.flyingcart.com/

Unfortunately those purchased autographs are looking VERY questionable in my opinion and I tried to help him getting a refund

This John Wayne autograph had been sold to him.

Owner Kenneth Walker responsed to our claim (see attachment)

"I believe the John Wayne autograph is authentic along with all the other autographs that were sold to you. I compared the John Wayne autograph with the items you sent me as a download and to tell you the truth I see more characteristics that say it is authentic than as you say not authentic. Take Care and have a great day."

"You had this authenticated from a dealer. I am a dealer and I am saying these autographs are real. You can check out my return policy and have the autographs authenticated by a real authenticator and you will see that the autographs are real. Take Care and have a great day."

With respect to the other dealer we would appreciate further opinions regarding this in our opinon forged John Wayne autograph which maybe help our customer to get his refund.

Enclosed is our first part authentication from the first letters of the John Wayne autograph as attachment.

We ask the autograph community to judge themselve which autograph dealer is reputable and of course ask Mr Walker to join this discussion as well.

kind regards

His Dale Earnhardt "autographs" are not authentic. In ofher words, they are juvenile attempts / forgeries.

So far we have had Christpher Williams and Steve Cyrkin check out the Baseball Autographed Items.

Brandon Mysinger has checked out the NASCAR Dale Earnhardt Autographed Items.

I have checked out most of the Celebrity Autographed Autographed Items including John Wayne and Clint Eastwood and collectively it is our humble opinion that this Dealer is selling non-authentic items on his website.

Steve, can you reach out to Roger and see if he can take alook at the Music Autographed Items.

Have you had any luck getting him as of today yto respond to the communitys concerns about the items he has on his website

Bob,

I'm away through the weekend, but checking in when I can...mostly by cell. Post a link on Roger's wall asking him to take a look please. I looked (and cringed) at Walker's celebrity/music and history sections, too (and only looked at Yankees baseball), but Roger's the man on music, so his input is important.

I haven't "reached out" to Kenneth Walker yet. But this is a community effort, so it would be fine for you to email him at the address Markus provided, or post a comment on his wall.

Again, their one hockey auction is for a fake Wayne Gretzky/Mario Lemieux photo. It would be worth 3x their price if it were authentic.

It is hard to imagine that collector's believe on such bargains priced at around 10% of what the true value would be if the signature is authentic. Dealers are always looking for quality authentic autographs and would pay promptly 1000-1500 for a good Lennon signature particular on an album.

If such a signature is discounted from a normal value of 1450 $ now to 225$ there must be a reason why it is still available and not picked up already by another collector or reseller

I have asked Roger Epperson to take a look at the autographed music product this dealer has on his website, per Steve Cyrkins request.

I have not heard back from him yet, but maybe you might reach out to Roger and bring him up tp speed about what this discussion is all about

I'm sorry I have been so busy doing so many things I forgot to get back with you on this. I looked at this site and in my expert opinion I think it's a load of garbage. I don't know what good I can do but if I can be of further help let me know. Also a shout out to Markus, that's one great guy! What is said is what I try to get through collectors head's all the time; if they were real; I'd buy them all! These guys wouldn't have to advertise a thing, just send to me and I'll pay the money. Since I haven't bought them at those prices, you can figure out they are not authentic.

Roger

Thanks so much for checking it out for us.

It is very much appreciated....

We are trying to get as many experts on board to make the case with Markus that this dealer

needs to re-evaluate his autographed inventory and sources, and to also get his client a refund on the Non-Authentic John Wayne SP that he had purchased from Mr. Walker.

Thanks again
