New Member / Questions / Opinions

I'll try and make this as brief as possible .. started collecting in the late 1970's and continued until about 1991 .. I have a fairly large collection and as I am now a semi-retirement mode, I decided the collection does not mean that much to me, so I have decided to sell much of my material ..

I have sent a piece to JSA and they declined it .. so, since then, I have studied about half of my collection, using this great website as well as online examples, in an attempt to weed out what appears to be fake .. rather than continue to send material to JSA unless I have a pretty good idea it will pass .. which, in retrospect, is what I should have done all along .. at any rate, it was a learning experience ..

Question : I have a variety of material and have begun taking good pics of the autographs .. should I just use this one thread for all of it as I go .. ?? Should I post a new thread for each piece .. ?? What is the etiquette of asking opinions, IOW .. ?? Should I change the thread title to reflect the piece .. ?? I don't want to be a Forum hog, I know and appreciate the time and effort folks go thru .. I will probably have quite a few I would like opinions on, over time ..

Again, I appreciate very much the time, effort and expertise of all those that contribute ..

And, BTW, I'm Willie ..

I'll at least start with a few ..

Excellent Arnold autograph - your best bet is to take them to an auction house. I am looking to offload my collection as times are hard and I need the money tbh so I might send a few emails out and see if anyone's willing to buy - not interested in selling just a few pieces, just the collection itself. Got some nice pieces in there, from books to photos etc. Hopefully someone might be able to help me, too. Whilst I love the hobby, sometimes you have to make sacrifices in difficult times. Good luck in selling your collection, dude.
