Authenticity is Everything
Harrison Ford Questionable Autographs
Some of you know me, and from what I understand, someone caught selling yet another bad Ford autograph has once again, decided to spout off at the mouth. Claims that I am a dealer and I only tell unsuspecting autograph buyers that their item is fake so that I can sell my own Harrison Fords. Again I am hearing claims that the likely supplier of the forgeries is the true expert on Harrison Ford autographs.
Side note the seller sent me a friend request message yesterday with the single question about if I knew a particular collector. In my world this says plenty, and likely tells me where the piece originated.
When I tell people that I track the sale of Harrison Ford autographs, I am not kidding around, I watch sales here, I watch sales on rebelscum and on ebay and other online auction sites.
Who signed them? Who is the forger? I am not going to play games and point fingers, nor will I even guess if the supplier is the forger, all I can do is put together where they came from.
I will give the people that have had these in their possession, that courtesy. They can come clean about where they got them as the "in-person" and "private signing" stories fall apart.
This is the same courtesy I tried to provide to Marc Moser, the last guy caught in a huge Ford Forgery mess. He decided to drag my name thru the mud for a few months as well, but by doing that he just shot himself in the foot. People will wake up sooner or later, and the truth does come out.
I present these images to you, again supplying the signatures and letting the people on this forum and others as judge, you decide the truth. You will also be the deciding factor if these autograph professionals keep their reputations or if they have earned brand new ones.
Every item below has been tracked to the most recent seller, and through his own admission the source of the autographs, I will also include items sold elsewhere by the supplier who admitted on these very pages to supplying some of these.
The pattern is pretty clear to me.
As for the recent claims about me being a dealer, out to only hurt other peoples supposedly reputable business.
Please keep in mind, that anyone that has purchased anything at all from me in the past 5 years has approached me. When they do I usually point them in other directions and offer to authenticate (for free) any item they ask about, from any other source.

I'm gonna try my luck at both Robert's and Joe's and say No. Let's see if I get either of these right.....

The Indy shot has all the markers for coming from the same group that this post was started about. Now that I have said this, Robert will tell us how he got it in person, or he witnessed the signing or bought it from some reputable source who is beyond reproach......whatever, I am sure he will come up with some amazing story. Believe me, I don't care.
It's not one that would be in my collection.
The Clear and Present danger shot looks great, nice mid 90's example.

So I'm maintaining my impressive 50/50 accuracy rate on Ford!

Pete, you are the most condescending person on this site. A yes or no answer would do fine. Assumption is .... just what it means... Try being a little less crude and more objective. I saw this in a BIDDING site.. FYI..
Btw, Pete. Would you be willing to write me a letter stating this is a forgery? I will be happy to pay you for this request. Can you do this please? Can I make an assumption? I will assume that you will not.

Robert, you are a proven liar, I have no use for people like you. You can assume that I don't have any interest in hearing from you again.
I may joke with my friends here from time to time, but you have brought any condescension I may show, on yourself. Please go tell someone else your stories of woe, I am done with you.
Take your questions elsewhere.
Congrats on being the first person in over 30 years of collecting, that I will straight out refuse to help..... and believe me , from the looks of your facebook autograph posts....you need to find a new hobby.

Pete, without knowing me, that is a very unwise statement and so I take it you will not write a public letter stating the item you said is a forgery is in fact a forgery. (For the record) As for not "dealing with me", it doesn't hurt me one bit. It does sadden me that you use these modes to inject your biases. As for my "Facebook Posts", 95% come from Tom Kramer so I would be careful who you level your charge at. God bless you, though! :-)

Don't know what going on with Robert but thank-you, Pete. I think your point blank honesty is refreshing and you are an asset to this hobby.

I don't know what's going on with your best man here, either, Joe. You don't call people you do not know liars.

No stand up guy calls anyone a liar without knowing them, Mark.

You don't need to know someone when you can catch them in a lie, right here on this site....by just reading their posts.
Apparently someone else using your account here stated that you bought an item from Autograph World, while yet another someone using your account stated that you got it at a hotel a few months earlier on this very site.
That is called a convenient way to start excusing your lie. Why don't you run with that story.

Pete that was about 2 different photos. Not one. OK! With over 300 autographs mostly bought from Tom Kramer ...yes, even I can get confused.. Some were bought from Autograph World and most others from Tom. There is no INTENTION to lie about anything.
